(I dropped my dog)
I woke one morning about 3AM
(In my solution)
Remembering the missing link to a formula I stumbled upon years before
(He looked so different)
Suddenly I called my faithful dog to my side and from
(In my solution)
A batch produced a sample of the formula, offering it to my dear pet

I knew I found
My peace solution
My instant aid
To evolution

(What have I done)
The affect on my faithful animal was fascinating!
(With my solution)
His former disposition to chase the cat, the rabbits and other sundry animals
(He walked so gently)
Of the estatе had gone. Instead, he walkеd gently through the dark
(He would harm no one)
And dead forest, a look of peace and calm about him
I knew i must spread the formula to all mankind

Success had come
To my solution
My instant aid
To evolution
What have I done
With my soluuuu...

(Damsel)
One night, walking the streets near my laboratory
(Outside my castle)
I discovered a beautiful damsel with dark flowing hair
(She looked so fair)
And conversed her to be a part of my experiment. She lay upon the table
(Her dark brown hair)
Looking so peaceful as I administered my solution
Oh, her beauty was inconceivable!

What have I done
With my solution
My instant aid
To my solution

Oh, my solution
Sweet peace solution
Were I to lose it?
I would have loved it

Deciding to spread my solution around the world
I must have had to leave the laboratory for a little while
But, when I returned, she was gone! The damsel was gone!
I mean, not gone yet, but the heart meter said she was almost gone
She was dying! What could I do? She was almost dead!

There's the meter
The meter has now read even
The line has evened out
And you know what that means

Play it

The Beach Boys

The Beach Boys are one of the world’s best-selling bands of all time and the first American pop band to reach the 50-year milestone. Their vocal harmonies are among the most unmistakable and enduring of the rock and roll era.

Formed in 1961 in Hawthorne, California, by Brian Wilson, his two brothers Carl and Dennis, their cousin Mike Love, and classmate Al Jardine, the group’s first single “Surfin'” got them signed to Capitol Records and they quickly became one of the most popular and successful artists of the surf music craze of the 1960s. From 1962 to 1966, The Beach Boys scored over twenty top 40 hits in the US including the chart-toppers “I Get Around”, “Help Me Rhonda” & “Good Vibrations” along with the top 5’s “Surfin USA”, “Fun, Fun, Fun”, “California Girls”, “Barbara Ann” & “Sloop John B”. Several of the band’s singles also found top 40 success in Canada, Australia, Sweden and the UK. In 1965, de facto leader Brian Wilson suffered a mental breakdown due to the stress of writing, producing & touring combined with substance abuse issues, causing him to step down and stop traveling with the band on tour.

Inspired by producer Phil Spector and The Beatles' Rubber Soul, Brian focused on studio work, determined to keep the group relevant as the surf music scene was fading with their 1966 album Pet Sounds. Despite tension between members in the studio about this new direction, lack of faith from the record label, mixed reviews, and comparatively lukewarm reception initially in the US, the album still found massive success in the UK and earned accolades from fellow artists including The Beatles, who acknowledged that the album was their inspiration to further push the boundaries of pop music with their landmark album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. Eventually Pet Sounds would be acknowledged as one of the greatest albums ever recorded by several media outlets like The Times, Mojo Magazine, The Guardian, VH1, BBC and Rolling Stone.
