| [00:14.34] |
John and Mitchie were gettin' kind of itchy |
| [00:17.49] |
Just to leave the folk music behind; |
| [00:20.85] |
Zal and Denny workin' for a penny |
| [00:23.65] |
Tryin' to get a fish on the line. |
| [00:27.16] |
In a coffee house Sebastian sat, |
| [00:29.64] |
And after every number they'd pass the hat. |
| [00:34.16] |
McGuinn and McGuire just a-gettin' higher in L.A., |
| [00:38.26] |
You know where that's at. |
| [00:40.72] |
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [00:47.36] |
Zallie said, "Denny, you know there aren't many |
| [00:50.47] |
Who can sing a song the way that you do; let's go south." |
| [00:54.13] |
Denny said, Zallie, golly, don't you think that I wish |
| [00:57.17] |
I could play guitar like you." |
| [01:00.37] |
Zal, Denny, and Sebastian sat (at the Night Owl) |
| [01:03.99] |
And after every number they'd pass the hat. |
| [01:07.18] |
McGuinn and McGuire still a-gettin higher in L.A., |
| [01:11.19] |
You know where that's at. |
| [01:13.73] |
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [01:20.42] |
When Cass was a sophomore, planned to go to Swathmore |
| [01:23.48] |
But she changed her mind one day. |
| [01:26.93] |
Standin' on the turnpike, thumb out to hitchhike, |
| [01:30.18] |
"Take me to New York right away." |
| [01:33.06] |
When Denny met Cass he gave her love bumps; |
| [01:36.92] |
Called John and Zal and that was the Mugwumps. |
| [01:40.04] |
McGuinn and McGuire couldn't get no higher |
| [01:43.15] |
But that's what they were aimin' at. |
| [01:45.25] |
And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [01:53.45] |
Mugwumps, high jumps, low slumps, big bumps - |
| [01:56.45] |
Don't you work as hard as you play. |
| [01:59.98] |
Make up, break up, everything is shake up; |
| [02:02.93] |
Guess it had to be that way. |
| [02:06.21] |
Sebastian and Zal formed the 'Spoonful; |
| [02:10.10] |
Michelle, John, and Denny gettin' very tuneful. |
| [02:13.10] |
McGuinn and McGuire just a-catchin' fire in L.A., |
| [02:16.96] |
You know where that's at. |
| [02:19.47] |
And everybody's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [02:59.10] |
Broke, busted, disgusted, agents can't be trusted, |
| [03:02.30] |
And Mitchie wants to go to the sea. |
| [03:05.78] |
Cass can't make it; she says we'll have to fake it - |
| [03:08.71] |
We knew she'd come eventually. |
| [03:12.38] |
Greasin' on American Express cards; |
| [03:15.96] |
Tents low rent, but keeping out the heat's hard. |
| [03:18.97] |
Duffy's good vibrations and our imaginations |
| [03:22.05] |
Can't go on indefinitely. |
| [03:25.39] |
And California dreamin' is becomin' a reality. |
