It’s a hard world to get a break in.
All the good things have been taken.
But girl there are ways.
To make certain things pay.
Though I’m dressed in these rags.
I’ll wear sable.
Someday.

It’s My Life
The Animals (1965)

So just chill.
So let’s do this the fuck up, roll up like tropical kid.
Don’t play me like I got a flowerpot head kid.
Just chill man.
On the real let’s go get this money fast son.
I know how we gotta do this kid.

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you.
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be.
Dream a little dream of me.

Dream a Little Dream of Me
The Mamas & the Papas (1967), The Papas & The Mamas

…so big Jim Dwyer made his last trip.
To the land where his father’s laid.
But fifteen minutes later.
We had our first taste of whiskey.
There was uncles giving lectures.
On ancient Irish history.
The men all started telling jokes.
And the women they got frisky.
At five o’clock in the evening.
Every bastard there was piskey.
