Title: Other White Album songs Mike should have helped with
Post by: Iron Horse-Apples on July 23, 2013, 01:26:12 PM
Hi. A little known piece of Beach Boys trivia is that our very own Mike Love helped Paul McCartney right the lyrics to Back In The USSR. Apparently, Paul was descending the stairs in India, singing BITUSSR, when Mike hit upon the bright idea of mentioning girls from different areas of Russia, in a sort of California Girls pastiche. Pretty cool, huh?

Anyhow, I wondered what other White Album period songs you feel would have benefited from Mike's positive outlook and uncanny ear for a hook.

Glass Onion

Lennon / McCartney / Love

I told you 'bout Strawberry Fields,
You know the place where nothing is real,
Well, here's another place you can go,
It's called Kokomo o oh
Looking for my lawyers number
To sue all the other Beach Boys
Looking through the class one suit

I told you 'bout Brian and me, man,
You know that we're as close as can be, man,
Well, here's another clue for you all,
The guy is a fool
Standing on a cast iron lawsuit.
Uncle Murry tryin' to rip me off, yeah,
Looking through the class one  suit
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Looking through the class one suit.

I told you 'bout the Fun Fun Fun yeah
I tell you man it's fun in the sun yeah
Well, here's another place you can be,
In court with me
Fixing a hole in the Beach Boys,
Trying to make a decent song
Looking through the class one suit

Good Night   
( J. Lennon, M. Love, P. McCartney.)

Now it's time to say good night,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby.
Now the sun turns out his light,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby.

Dream sweet dreams for me,
Dream sweet dreams for you.
Close your eyes and I'll close mine,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby.

Now the moon begins to shine,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby.

Dream sweet dreams for me,
Dream sweet dreams for you,
Dream sweet dreams for me,
Dream sweet dreams for you.
Close your eyes and I'll close mine,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby

Now the sun turns out his light,
Good night, baby. Sleep tight, baby.

Dream sweet dreams for me,
Dream sweet dreams for you.

Why Don't We Do It On The Beach

Why don't we do it on the beach

No one will be f***ing with my formula
Why don't we do it on the beach

MIKE LOVE: "Hi, I'm Mike Love. You know, the sixties were an exciting time. A lot of exciting things happened all at once, and it's easy to forget that in those turbulent times, surfing and cars were okay but there was a war going on. So when I went to India with THE BEATLES, we decided to sit down and pen one of the ultimate statements of that period, Student Revolution Time."

(http://cokemachineglow.com/images/7869.jpg)

MIKE LOVE: "There was a lot of spirituality in the air, a lot of peace that stuck to your lungs and made it hard to breathe. Some people say that air was full of herbal remedies, but you didn't need drugs like Cousin Brian to meditate and dive into the pure bliss the Maharashi made possible for me and THE BEATLES in India. So when it came down to make a statement about the protests, and the riots... WITH THE BEATLES... I knew it had to come from a cool heart and mindful brainmind of blissful mindfulmindbrainness."

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d3/Vietnam_War_Protest_in_DC,_1967.gif/220px-Vietnam_War_Protest_in_DC,_1967.gif)

MIKE LOVE: "Cars and surfing and surfing cars were alright, but there WAS a war going on, right? I may not be Doctor Martin Luther King, but I was Doctor Love... and with THE BEATLES, I knew I had my chance to seize the moment and speak directly to the youth culture that voted the Beach Boys number one over The Beatles and The Rolling Stones."

STUDENT REVOLUTION TIME

( J. Lennon, M. Love, P. McCartney.)

WHEEEEN you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to stay away.
You say it's your contribution --
Well, you know
We still want to stay away.
Well there's a riot going on,
Don't you know that you can count me out
There's a riot going on...
All right, baby.
Sleep tight, baby.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE

It's Been A Long Love Loveless Time
Why Did I Ever Ignore You?
When I Was So Young?

My love has been so worn down
When Was I Ever To Realize
How Would I Find You?

So Many Years I've Been Wasting.
Down At The Beach Not Meditating OHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Now I Have Found My True Love
How Could I Ever Betray You?
We Could Go Surfing Together
Ride Every Wave Forever
You Know I Would Be True
Oh How I Love You

Have you seen the little wilsons
Crawling in the dirt?
And for all the little wilsons
Life is getting worse
Always having dirt to play around in

Have you seen the bigger wilsons
In their starched stripey shirts?
You will find the bigger wilsons
Stirring up the dirt
Always have clean shirts to play around in

In their styes with all their backing tracks
They don't care 'bout I get around
In their brains there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking

Everywhere there's lots of wilsons
Living wilson lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their wilson wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon

Pump gas, shag a**
Dreaming of the big time...whoa whoa whoa


Sitting in my XKE
Hear the engine rev
Striped shirts, short skirts
Made it to the big time...go go go

Cross-legged out in Pebble Beach
Levitate til' dawn
J'ai guru, Honolulu
Cash another check for Kokomo



Oooooooooo......Surfer Nation Boy.

Legend has it the song was about the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi hitting up the girls for sex while in India in 67. Hey, Mike was there, and advances are right up his alley.

Wait a minute, could this song really  be about the Luvster?

WILD HONEY SURFER GIRL

She was a surfer girl
South of Monterey Bay
Now she rides the big waves
It the U.S.A.

And if she could only hear me
This is what I'd say (wheeeee...)
Surfer girl you're making me crazy
I'm Mike Love and meditating
So won't you please do it again

Oh surfer girl give me excitations
Come and show me the vibrations
Of your favourite tune

You became a legend of the silvery waves
And now the thought of surfing with you
Makes me buzz like a busy bee
Oh surfer girl you are driving the coastline
Surf arcoss the Atlantic
With all the surfing guys

Will the wind that blew her board
Across the sea
Kindly send her surfing back to me

Glass Onion is a pathetic attempt at song writing. I can't understand why everyone seems to dig the White Album when it is riddled with filler and less-than-standard material.

Glass Onion is like the Beatles SIP, Wild Honey Pie wut?, OBLADI OBLADA LIFE GOES OOOOOONNN RHHHHAAAA??? LALALALALA LIFE GOES ON! + more Macca granny songs.

'I told you bout strawberry fields, you know the place where nothing is real'

 those lyrics COULD've been ML's. They are so utterly disgusting.

Don't get me wrong. White Album has much good music and if it had been a single LP release with the good stuff it would be a stelar release.

RPM #409

(Various chessey drag strip / car crash sound efx, punctuated by random burps and farts mixed w/ voice OD rants from Michael like "All Hail Brian, the Stalin of the Studio" and "Hey Baby get in the back seat with me and become naked"  with Bruce playing "Chopsticks" over and over in the background. This lasts about 12 mins or until you cannot stand it anymore and smash the record.

Happiness is a warm surf

She's not a girl who surfs much
Do do do do do do do do, oh yeah
She's well acquainted with the touch of a warm surf
Like a lizard on a sandy beach
The man in the crowd with the his multicolored Hawaiian shirt
And his sandals on
Lying with his eyes while his board is busy surfing overtime
A corn dog which he ate and And donated to the surf trust

Down
I need to surf cause I'm going down
Down to the my girl that I left uptown
I need to surf cause I'm going down

California surfers jump the gun
California surfers jump the gun
California surfers jump the gun
California surfers jump the gun
California surfers jump the gun

 Happiness (is a warm surf)
 Surf, Surf, Surf, Surf
 Happiness (is a warm surf, momma)
 Surf Surf Surf Surf

 (When I hold you in my arms)
 Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

And I see your body on my board
 Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

 I know no loud braggart can put me down
 Oooooooooh, oh yeah!

 Because

 Happiness (is a warm surf, momma)
 Surf Surf Surf Surf

 Happiness (is a warm surf, momma)
 Surf Surf Surf Surf

I used to subscribe to the idea that it would have been a killer single album, but I've tried, and like most Beatles albums I can get to a side and one track before running out of good stuff. It's embarrassing.

Abbey Road is worse. Compare either of them to an album like Scott 4 or five leaves later or blue afternoon or 'birthday' by the association, or any goshdarn Cowills record, or the Peppermint Trolley Company on Atca or Millenium or Sagittarius and there's simply no comparison. None of those acts ever pissed in their audiences ears with 'maxwells fucking hammer' or 'obladioblada'

Goddamnit

Hey, Banzai Bill
Was it a thrill?
Banzai Bill? (2x)

HE WENT out big wave hunting with his 8ft ,3 finned gun
In case of wiping out he always took his mum
He's the all American ,Californian wax-headed mother's son.
All the surfers sing

Hey, Banzai Bill
Was it a thrill?
Banzai Bill? (2x)

Deep in the ocean where the 30 foot big wave f lies
Bill and his 8ft gun were taken by surprise
so the Silver Surfer zapped him right between the eyes
all the surfers sing

Hey, Banzai Bill
Was it a thrill?
Banzai Bill? (2x)

The surfers asked him if to wipe-out was a sin
"Not when it’s thirty foot", his mummy butted in
"If  waves could kill it would have been us instead of him"
all the surfers sing

Hey, Banzai Bill
Was it a thrill?
Banzai Bill?(9x) (fade out)

You say you got a car that's bitchin'
Well you know
we'd all love to see it drag
You ask me for a little less friction
Well you know
We're all suing what we can
But if you want money for people with minds that hate
All I can tell you is brother just meditate
Don't you know it's gonna be alright?


Alright Alright


You say East Coast girls are pretty
Well you know
they'd all love to be Cali girls
You tell me it's such a pity
Well you know, Bruce buys a lot of shorts
But if you go carrying pictures of Cousin Bri
You ain't gonna get nuthin' from me until we write

Don't you know it's gonna be alright

I know! And you're far from the only one. I think Obladioblada is the most famous track on the White Album, everyone seems to ignore the good Lennon tracks. Maybe Obladioblada and Back In The USSR was the only songs which were 'catchy' enough at the time.

Personally I think it's bloody awful.

Below is the "hidden" verse to "Mother Nature's Son" which can only be heard if you play the first side of the album (despite the actual track being on the second half) backwards and 10x the original speed. When hearing this verse at Abbey Road, Paul was frightened that it would burn down the studio and so he scrapped it.

Born a poor young Surfer Boy
Mother Lover's Son
All day long I'm sitting singing songs of fun, fun, fun

now somewhere out in the hills off trancas lived a young lad named michael the loon
and one day his woman came up with another lie
hit young michael in the eye
michael didn't like that he said i'm gonna find that cig
and one day he walked into town walked himself  into the studio
michael the loon checked into the room only to find his friends chuckling
Michael had come equipped with a nun-chuck
to beat the piss out of his rival
his rival it seems had broken his dreams
by stealing the girl of his fancy
her name was Suzanne but away had she ran
and everyone thought she was crazy
Now and she and her "friend who called himself den'
were in the next room at his res'dence
Brucie burst in and grinning a grin
he said denny boy this is a lawsuit
but denny was hot and brucie just thought
that he would just get a promotion



D'da d'da d'da da da da
D'da d'da d'da da da da
D'da d'da d'da da d'da d'da d'da d'da
Do do do do do do

D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do
Do do do do do do

now the lawyer came in, striking a grin
and proceeded to sit at the table
He said Mikey you got a case
and Mikey said man just punch his face
and we'll be better man as soon as we've got brian

And now Mikey the loon fell back in his room
Only to find his friend's chuckling
Brian checked out and he left it no doubt
To help with good Mikey's revival, ah
Oh yeah, yeah

BRIAN WHY (To the tune of WILD HONEY)

I was a working guy,
Mt. Vernon and Fairway,
Now I've Hit The Big Time!
Singing Surfin' USA,

And if Brian could only hear me,
This is what I'd say.....

Brian why,
You are making me crazy,
Van Dyke's lyrics are too hazy,
So won't you send him home.

Oh Brian why,
Your new songs are so tragic,
Let me show you the magic,
Of my retro surf songs.

You became a legend of the music scene,
But now the thought of collaborating
Makes you break down and scream!

Oh Brian why,
You are making me frantic,
Let's surf around the atlantic
And then let's write a song.

Touching stuff there.

Music: the universal language.

Mike Love: the even more universal language.

Amen.

Glass Onion is a pathetic attempt at song writing. I can't understand why everyone seems to dig the White Album when it is riddled with filler and less-than-standard material.

Glass Onion is like the Beatles SIP, Wild Honey Pie wut?, OBLADI OBLADA LIFE GOES OOOOOONNN RHHHHAAAA??? LALALALALA LIFE GOES ON! + more Macca granny songs.

'I told you bout strawberry fields, you know the place where nothing is real'

 those lyrics COULD've been ML's. They are so utterly disgusting.

Don't get me wrong. White Album has much good music and if it had been a single LP release with the good stuff it would be a stelar release.

I must admit that I love "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da"...

I know! And you're far from the only one. I think Obladioblada is the most famous track on the White Album, everyone seems to ignore the good Lennon tracks. Maybe Obladioblada and Back In The USSR was the only songs which were 'catchy' enough at the time.

Personally I think it's bloody awful.

Well, you're definitely not the only one who thinks it's awful either. I've read a few "Worst Songs by Great Bands" and "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" shows up quite a bit...
But, while I usually prefer McCartney over Lennon, it's hard to pretend that Lennon doesn't have great songs all over this album, like "Happiness is a Warm Gun," "I'm So Tired," "Yer Blues," "Everybody's Got Something to Hide," "Sexy Sadie," and "Revolution 1."

"Dear Prudence," and "Bungalow Bill" also appeal more to my "poppier side." However, "Revolution 9," I believe, is by far the worst "song" The Beatles recorded.

That's from Abbey Road.  I love that song though for its dark humor and the disturbing lyrics to such a cheery melody.
