Monkees Lyrics     They may have been prefabricated to steal pocket change from the pockmarked teen masses, but the Monkees were the best darn prefab rock band ever created by cynical cigar chompers (and counterculture director Bob Rafelson). Who cares if "Last Train to Clarksville" is an inferior rewrite of the Beatles' "Day Tripper," or if the Monkees were just an inferior, third-generation pastiche of the Fab Four? Their songs were fantastic -- from the hard-rocking drive of "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" to the dreamy Psychedelic splendor of "Porpoise Song." Could any of today's teenybopper confections release anything as brilliant as the Kinks-esque "Randy Scouse Git," which goes from sunny, British music hall to slamming Pre-Punk and back again? Despite all the nattering nabobs of negativity who say the Monkees never wrote their own tunes, they did pen a considerable number of their songs. They also relied on the talents of proven Brill Building scribes such as Goffin/King, Neil Diamond and Boyce/Hart. The TV show they were created to front remains a fun time capsule, and their bizarre, acid-drenched movie Head is still a creative tour de (unfocused) force. What does it say about modern pop music that the Prefab Four made better music than today's "uncompromising" artistic geniuses?

Monkees Song Lyric: Daddy's Song Years ago, I knew a man He was my mother's biggest fan We used to walk beside the sea And he told me how life would be When I grew up to be a man Years ago, we used to play He used to laugh when I ran away But when I fell and hurt my knee He would run to comfort me And the pain would go away Years ago, I knew a boy He was his daddy's pride and joy But when the daddy went away It was such a rainy day That he brought out all his toys How the mother did explain Trying to take away the pain But he just couldn't understand That his father was not a man That it all was just a game The years have passed, and so have I Making it hard for me to cry And if and when I have a son Let it all be said and done Let the sadness pass him by Get This Ringtone Goin’ Down Gonna Buy Me A Dog Good Clean Fun Hard To Believe Heart & Soul Heart And Soul Hold On Girl How Insensitive I Can’t Get Her Off My Mind I Don't Think You Know Me I Wanna Be Free I Won't Be The Same Without Her I'll Be Back Upon My Feet I'll Be True To You I'll Spend My Life With You I'm A Believer If You Have The Time It's Nice To Be With You It’s My Life It’s Nice to Be With You I’m a Believer Just A Game Lady's Baby Last Train To Clarksville Laugh Let's Dance On Listen To The Band Little Girl Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow Look Out, Here Comes Tomorrow Monkees lyrics page: 1 2 3 4
