Original Monkees' songs were produced very thinly, on purpose.

Il Tema Dei Monkees

Ecco qua
Passiamo noi
E la gente ci guarda
Ed ammir con voi
Ci chiamano I monkees,
E siamo meno matti di chi
Si crede piu' intelligente
Di noi che la pensiamo cosi.
Dovunque parliamo
Non e' giusto mai
Ce' sempre qualcuno che
Ne sa piu' di noi.
Ci chiamano I monkees
E siamo meno matti di chi
Si crede piu' intelligente
Di noi che la pensiamo cosi'
Ci chiamano I monkees...
Translation!
Here we are
We are passing by
And people are looking at us
And they admire us with you.
They call us the monkees
And we are less crazy than those
Who think are more intelligent
Than us who think this way.
Everywhere we talk
Its never right
Theres always someone
Who knows more than us.
They call us the monkees
And we are less crazy than those
Who think are more intelligent
Than us who think this way.
Ci chiamano I monkees....

Theme From The Monkees

By tommy boyce and bobby hart
Here we come, walkin
Down the street.
We get the funniest looks from
Evry one we meet.
Hey, hey, were the monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But were too busy singing
To put anybody down.
We go wherever we want to,
Do what we like to do
We dont have time to get restless,
Theres always something new.
Hey, hey, were the monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But were too busy singing
To put anybody down.
Were just tryin to be friendly,
Come and watch us sing and play,
Were the young gneration,
And weve got something to say.
Any time, or anywhere,
Just look over your shoulder
Guess wholl be standing there
Hey, hey, were the monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But were too busy singing
To put anybody down.
(break)
Hey, hey, were the monkees
And people say we monkey around.
But were too busy singing
To put anybody down.
Were just tryin to be friendly,
Come and watch us sing and play,
Were the young gneration,
And weve got something to say.
Hey, hey, were the monkees
Hey, hey, were the monkees
[repeat and fade]
Extra verse:
Hey, hey, were the monkees,
You never know where well be found.
So youd better get ready,
We may be comin to your town.

The Monkees Present Radio Promo

by Unknown
The management at Colgems Records has asked me to explain something,
which is no big surprise, because people are always asking their kids to
explain everything.
(Listen To The Band excerpt)
They want to bring us out all the time, to get us to talk, to tell them
what we think, so they can tell us why we're wrong. But for us, our
music says it all.
Like the Monkees and their new album: The Monkees Present.
(Good Clean Fun excerpt)
Their music is like we are. It's hard to say why you like it, except the
music talks to you instead of expecting you to talk to it. Get The
Monkees
Present on Colgems, records and Stereo-8 cartridge tape. It's music that
talks to you.
(Never Tell A Woman Yes excerpt)

My favorite music to sing would be my own songs, my original songs, just because I know them, you know I write the tunes, so my favorite songs are the newest ones that I write. That's what I like to sing the most, because it means something, it's real, it comes from me.

To tell something original.

She says, you are not original in what you are telling me

Any janitor in your office can always say that seeing that

It is different. I am original in this. I am feeling something.
I am original in this feeling and you do not feel it that way I see these things.

I am leaving you. It is the first time I am feeling this. It is this first time
That I am telling you. I am original. I have long searched what words to use

To tell something original.

Very Few Know The Difference

The attention given to not paying it...
Will soon be in conversations mentioned.

To refuse to get involve and to solve what is seen,
When it appears initially on the scene...
Has produced its regrets!
In such an obviousness.

And...
There is no 'catch up' in time to be gotten either.
It is easier to forget...
That which one should have never forgotten.

A loss of self respect...
Will not generate a life of sweetened fragrances.

There are steps one takes that should connect,
To strengthen one's comprehension that identifies a purpose.
And very few know the difference between purpose...
That has lost a vision and a vision that has no depth to be seen.

The consequences of things are not always proportionate to the apparent magnitude of those events that have produced them. Thus the American Revolution, from which little was expected, produced much; but the French Revolution, from which much was expected, produced little.

Copies are different originals

I take after my father but not his original.
I take after my brother but not his original.
Replicas are themselves original.

Ringmasters Word

I have a purpose...
Take your dill knife, stab me, go, strike my heart...(ha ha, ha ha...ha ha, ha ha )
I have a purpose...
Such things cant exist...
I have a purpose...
You will tell them of me and how one day I shall come for them...
I have a purpose...
Quietly, I will come over your bed,
I will lean over and gently bite your neck...
Ringmaster...
I have a purpose...
You will tell them of me and how one day I shall come for them

Originally Yours

challenged to be
original
i quit. i am not
original i am a xerox
copy of
another mind
i am a duplicate
of another carbon
copy
i am an imprint
of another zealousness
i use other people's words
i listen to
every syllable
and they all stay
inside my heart
like decanted
mass from acetic acid
from coconut
wine.
i am not original
i look at myself
in the mirror
i am not original
but i put on a smile
i am too
one kind of
a handsome
copycat.

Very few people are original. There's very little original anything out there. Because to be original means you have to stand alone.

No thought is original

Some are original, some inspired,
Some copied, some reproduced,
Some modified or expanded
The original itself is the seed
Of one’s impression of events.
Nothing is original.
New born is not the newborn.
It is the extension of the fused gametes.

Ditty Diego - War Chant

Hey now wait a minute!
Now wait just a minute!
Hey hey we are the monkees
You know we love to please
A manufactured image
With no philosophies
We hope you like our story
Although there isnt one
That is to say theres many
That way there is more fun
You told us you like action
And games of many kinds
You like to dance, we like to sing
So lets all lose our minds!
We know it doesnt matter,
Cause what you came to see
Is what wed love to give you,
And give it one, two, three!
But there may come three, two, one, two
Or jump from nine to five,
And when you see the end in sight
The beginning may arrive!
For those who look for meaning,
And form as they do facts,
We might tell you one thing
But wed only take it back
Not back like in a box back
Not back like in a race,
Not back so we can keep it,
But back in time and space!
You say were manufactured,
To that we all agree,
So make you choice and well rejoice
In never being free!
Hey hey we are the monkees,
Weve said it all before
The moneys in were made of tin
Were here to give you more!
The moneys in were made of tin
Were here to give you--
*bang!!*
*scream!!!*
Gimme a w!
W!
Gimme an a!
A!
Gimme an r!!
R!!
What does that spell!!? ?
War!!
