"I think you got it now, Micky..." I Can't Get Her Off My Mind by Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart I've been standing on the corner all day, Trying to think of little things to say, 'Cause she walks by every day about this time, And I don't think I'll ever get her off of my mind. Well, I only met her about a week ago, But, the way she smiles lets me know That she could see that maybe we were two-of-a-kind, And I don't think I'll ever get her off of my mind. Oh, she's so pretty, I couldn't believe she'd ever look my way, But the way I'm feeling, I'm going to be stealing that little girl's heart today. Well, I'm so happy I could almost fly, And I guess you know the reason why, I'm walking down the street with her little hand in mine, And I don't think I'll ever get her off of my mind.

Early Morning Blues And Greens by Diane Hilderbrand & Jack Keller A distant nightbird mocks the sun, I wake as I have always done, To freshly-scented sycamore, And cold, bare feet on hardwood floor. My steaming coffee warms my face, I'm disappointed in the taste, But, there's a peace the early brings The morning world of growing things. SOLO I feel the moments hurry on, It was today, it's died away, And now it is forever gone. And I will drink my coffee slow, And I will watch my shadow grow, And disappear in firelight, And sleep alone again tonight.

(No time, no time at all) Randy Scouse Git by Micky Dolenz She's a wonderful lady and she's mine, all mine, And there doesn't seem a way that she won't come and lose my mind, It's too easy humming songs to a girl in yellow dress, It's been a long time since the party and the room is in a mess. The four kings of EMI are sitting stately on the floor, There are birds out on the sidewalk and a valet at the door, He reminds me of a penguin, with few and plastered hair, There's talcum powder on the letter and the birthday boy is there. Why don't you cut your hair? Why don't you live up there? Why don't you do what I do, see what I feel when I care? Now they've darkened all the windows and the seats are naugahide, I've been waiting for an hour, I can't find a place to hide, The being known as "Wonder Girl", is speaking, I believe, It's not easy trying to tell her that I shortly have to leave. Why don't you be like me? Why don't you stop and see? Why don't you hate who I hate, kill who I kill to be free? SOLO Why don't you cut your hair? Why don't you live up there?

Why don't you do what I do, (It's been a long time since the party and the room is in a mess) See what I feel when I care? Shades Of Gray by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil When the world and I were young, Just yesterday, Life was such a simple game, A child could play. It was easy then to tell right from wrong, Easy then to tell weak from strong, When a man should stand and fight Or just go along. But, today there is no day or night, Today there is no dark or light, Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray. I remember when the answer Seemed so clear, We had never lived with doubt Or tasted fear. It was easy then to tell truth from lies, Selling-out from compromise, Who to love and who to hate, The foolish from the wise. But, today there is no day or night, Today there is no dark or light, Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray. SOLO It was easy then to know what was fair, When to keep and when to share, How much to protect your heart And how much to care. But, today there is no day or night, Today there is no dark or light, Today there is no black or white, Only shades of gray, Only shades of gray. Sunny Girlfriend by Michael Nesmith She owns and operates her own sunshine factory, Of painting smiles on dolls and then on me, She's my sunny girlfriend and personality. Well, she's got a book that tells about everybody's past, And she can make it slow while making your mind move fast, She's my sunny girlfriend and she is never last. Oh, while I am sleeping, Then she comes creeping Into my thoughts at night, Gazing down through eyes as bright as wonder. She can send you on your way to everywhere, She's only started after you think that she is there, Oh, she's my sunny girlfriend, and she just doesn't care, Yeah, she's my sunny girlfriend, she doesn't really care.

You Told Me by Michael Nesmith You told me you'd always stay, you told me, You told me you'd never stray, you told me, All these things you said, you said sincerely, Still, I am leaving you in spite of what you told me. I've heard things that did not match what you told me, And of your love that would not last as you told me, Forewarned is forearmed, it hurts, I'm leaving, I may be wrong I can't love what I'm just hearing. Times have made me shy Of all the things you're saying, Times have made me shy Of girls and all the games that they are playing.
