1. "Life Is For The Living"
Vocals: Carl Wilson & Brian Wilson

Life
Is for the living
Don't sit around on your ass
Smokin' grass
That stuff went out a long time ago

Life
Is for the living
I thought you wanted to see
How it could be
When you're in shape and your head plugs in to
Life

Situps and pushups
A-do take energy
And so you run and you swim
At some gym
And then you will agree that

Life
Is for the living
Why don't you get up at eight
Feelin' so great
Cut out the sweets and start eating
Three times a day

Life 
Is for the living
I thought you wanted to see
How it could be
When you're in shape and your head plugs in to
Life
Is for the living
I thought you wanted to see
How it could be
When you're in shape and your head plugs in to
Life
Is for the living
I thought you wanted to see
How it could be
When you're in shape and your head plugs in to
Life
Life
Liiiiiifffffeeee

Lead: Mike Love, Brian Wilson

Hey little tomboy
Sit here on my lap 
I got things that I gotta tell you
No more skateboards

You could see that boys love you so-wo-wo
They're doin' it all over the world

Time you turned into a girl
Hey little hey little hey little tomboy

Look at all the changes I see
I'm gonna teach you to ki-hi-hiss
It's gonna feel just like thi-hi-hiss
They're doin' it all over the world

Hey little hey little hey little tomboy
Time you turned into a girl

3. "Deep Purple"
Lead: Brian Wilson

When the deep purple falls
Over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin to flicker
In the sky
Through the mist of a memory
You wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh
In the still of the night
Once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone
Your love lives on
When moonlight beams
And as long as my heart shall beat
Lover, we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dream

And as long as my heart shall beat
Lover, we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dream
Oh ho ho ho ho ho hooo


4. "It's Over Now"
Brian Wilson

The flame of love we had has finally died
Can't take this emptiness it left inside
It's over now

And though I played the role I lost my soul
It's still within your heart
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me

The noise outside my window carries on
Like distant bugles love is very gone
It's over now

It took a part of me, the heart of me
To watch it fade away
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me

Heaven
Heaven is far away
Angels no longer play

I need to take this fear and force it down
And just pretend that you are not around
It's over now

I'll put a Frank Sinatra album on
And cry my blues away
It's over now
It's over now
Shades of blue and purple haunt me


5. "Everybody Wants To Live"
Lead: Carl Wilson, Brian Wilson

A cigarette butt when you throw it in the water goes "ssst"
But the trick, but the trick is you shouldn't laugh
'Cause if you start laughin' you're just a coward
If you start laughin you're just a coward

Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life
What your life 
What your life can be

There's been songs about celebration
But if you ask me I can't see why
There's too much pain, too much pain in my heart now
Oo you're gonna have to prove it to me

Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life
What your life 
What your life can be

Now some people talkin' about ecology
Why don't somebody do somebody right now
And we're all chokin' on the end of our grief now
How could we all just let it slide by

Everybody wants to live just once
Everybody's got to see it that way
And see what your life
What your life 
What your life can be

8. "On Broadway"
Lead: Al Jardine

They say the neon lights are bright
On Broadway (on Broadway)
They say there's always magic in the air
(On Broadway)
But when you're walkin' down the street
And you ain't had enough to eat
The glitter rubs right off and you're nowhere
(On Broadway)

They say the chicks are somethin' else
On Broadway (On Broadway)
But lookin' at them just gives me the blues
(On Broadway)
'Cause how you gonna make some time
When all you got is one thin dime
And one thin dime won't even shine your shoes
(On Broadway)
They say that I won't last too long
On Broadway (On Broadway)
I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they say
(On Broadway)
But they're dead wrong I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar
And I won't quit till I'm a star
On Broadway (On Broadway)

But they're dead wrong I know they are
'Cause I can play this here guitar

I just looked to see the sun outside

A sun the clouds can't hide
Do you remember the time that you hear me say

I like to play games that two can play
Ah ha ha ha haaa

I get my legs to movin'

It's just no good unless two can play
Ah ha haaaa

Relaxin' in the night

Joe South was singing
"Games People Play"

10. "It's Trying To Say"
Lead: Dennis Wilson

Oh I love that simple way
People live from day to day
There's a song inside of you
It's stronger everyday
It's trying to say
"Everything will be alright"
That's what we're trying to say to you

Oh the baseball season's on
Get your season tickets now
Those athaletes work so hard
There the pitch and the bat goes pow
It's trying to say to you
"Everything will be alright"
That's what we're trying to say to you

Batter swings and the ball goes sailin' out in the crowd
Roundin' third safe at home and the fans start screamin' loud
Baseball's on
Baseball's on
Baseball's on
Baseball's on
Baseball's on

Oh I love that simple way
People live from day to day
There's a song inside of you
It gets stronger everyday
And it's trying to say to you
"Everything will be alright"
That's what we're trying to say to you

Dooby doo doo doo
Dooby doo doo doo


11. "Still I Dream Of It"
Lead Vocal: Brian Wilson
Brian Wilson

Time for supper now
Day's been hard and I'm so tired
I feel like eating now
Smell the kitchen now
Hear the maid whistle a tune
My thoughts are fleeting now

Still I dream of it
Of that happy day
When I can say I've fallen in love
And it haunts me so
Like a dream that's
Somehow linked to all the stars above

Young and beautiful
Like a tree that's just been planted
I found life today
I made mistakes today
Will I ever learn the lessons
That all come my way

Still I dream of it
Of that happy day
When I can say I've fallen in love
And it haunts me so
Like a dream that's
Somehow linked to all the stars above

When I was younger
My mother told me
Jesus loved the world
And if that's true then
Why hasn't he helped me to find a girl
And find my world

'Til then I'm just a dreamer
I'm convinced of it
The hypnosis of our minds can take us far away
It's so easy now
You see someone up there high
And heaven's here to stay

Still I dream of it
Of that happy day
When I can say I've fallen in love
And it haunts me so
Like a dream that's
Somehow linked to all the stars above

I'll find my world
I'll find my world
Someday I'll find my world
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah
