[Verse 1]
A Pisces lady loves romance (She loves romance)
Her movements tell you at a glance (She loves to dance)
Why they say Pisces rules the dance (She's got the glance)
Whoa
She values flowers more than gold (She flows like gold)
Thinks of her men as knights of old (She's never bold)
She's very spiritual I'm told (She has never told)
Whoa

[Chorus 1]
But where's my spark in the dark?
Glow glow glow c'mon glow
The funky pretty flame in my heart
Me and my Pisces lady are apart

[Verse 2]
Her calendar is not like ours (She rules the hours)
The hieroglyphs mark changing hours (She rules the stars)
Her guiding light is from the stars (She's got the powers)
Whoa
A book of verse, a jug of wine (She's soft like wine)
She'll always tell what's on your mind (She's much like time)
By just your birthday, place and time (She's very fine)
Whoa

[Chorus 2]
'Cause it's a silent night in the sea
And if you're cosmically conscious, you'll see
Why she's a princess incarnate to me
Daughter of Neptune, the ruler of the sea

[Bridge]
The queen in Copenhag-ee (Funky pretty)
The dream of Amsterdam-ee (Pretty funky)
The cream of gay Paris-ee (Funky pretty)
The theme of U Say Ah-see (Pretty funky)
The scene in Great Britain-yee (Funky pretty)
The meaning in Los Ang-ees (Pretty funky)
The heat in Tokyo-see (Funky pretty)
The treat in Manhatt-oh-see (Pretty funky)
Yeah, yeah
Funky pretty

[Chorus 3]
She said "Don't worry, it's alright
I'm coming back when the aspects are right"
And now I look in the paper each day
Wondering what my horoscope will say

[Outro]
Funky (ooooh funky)
(Someone say why, someone say why)
I still remember funky pretty (oooooh)
(Why shouldn't my Pisces lady tell me why)
(Why can't you tell me why)

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.
