I'm at my senior year in High School.  Today we took senior portraits in library. It was a very vintage setting with records.  I brought my Pet Sounds and Surf's Up vinyls as well as some other significant vinyls to have in the background of my portrait.  Anyways, I have to have a senior quote for the yearbook and would like to have a Brian Wilson/Beach Boys quote/lyric.  I want something significant and meaningful.

Nothing like "Hey little Tomboy sit here on my lap..." -- that would be great, though?

I almost went with "To wear a floral shirt is an experience", which is apparently something Brian said.
The Beach Boys don't have too many deep, meaningful lyrics to quote. Just wasn't really their thing.

Awesome stuff Nick.

"I've been trying hard to find the people that I won't leave behind" has been my mantra as long as I've been a fan. Seems pretty appropriate, bit of a bummer though  Grin

According to someone who would know.

Seriously, there was a Beach Boys Love You condom?!  Amazing.

That would be fantastic.  Or the quote about chocolate.

Well oh my oh gosh oh gee?

My friend Bob, he has a job?

We'll remember always, graduation day?

Whether willing witness waits at my mind whether hope dampens memory?

A lot was going on!

Dennis threw furniture?

Life is full of possibilities?

I've got 3,000 words to say?

Closer to hip replacement than hip hop?

I just want to write hits with my cousin?

I was Mr. Positive Thinker?

We're all goin' places?

I guess I'm just a sentimental sap?

The cigarette butt when you throw it in the water goes PFFT.
But the trick is you shouldn't laugh.
Coz if you start laughing, you're just a coward.

"I'm a leaf on a windy day, pretty soon I'll be blown away" is as deep and meaningful a lyric as I've ever heard.  (Not sure it'd make a great senior quote, thought).

Stark naked, in front of my mirror
a pudgy person somehow did appear
Seems lately all I've eaten sugar and fat
It's getting obvious that's not where it's at



Time will not wait for me, time is my destiny



Late at night, when the whole world's sleeping
I dream of you




My girlfriend Penny, she's kind of skinny and so she needs her falsies on



C'mon c'mon and do the chicken I mean I I I I I I I I I I I I






driving around, living the dream, I'm cruising around, digging the scene I'm not gonna stress, not gonna hurry, doing my best, no need to worry





Out in the barnyard the chickens do their number




I'd love just once to see you in the nude





When's the last time you baked me a pie?






Eat a lot, sleep a lot, brush em like crazy
run a lot, do a lot, never be lazy




If the red river's flowing, take the dirt road home

It is good for man
To try all changes, progress and corruption, powers, peace and anguish,
Not to go down the dinosaur's way
Until all his capacities have been explored: and it is good for him
To know that his needs and nature are no more changed, in fact, in ten
Thousand years than the beaks of eagles.
