| [00:14.34] | John and Mitchie were gettin' kind of itchy |
| [00:17.49] | Just to leave the folk music behind; |
| [00:20.85] | Zal and Denny workin' for a penny |
| [00:23.65] | Tryin' to get a fish on the line. |
| [00:27.16] | In a coffee house Sebastian sat, |
| [00:29.64] | And after every number they'd pass the hat. |
| [00:34.16] | McGuinn and McGuire just a-gettin' higher in L.A., |
| [00:38.26] | You know where that's at. |
| [00:40.72] | And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [00:47.36] | Zallie said, "Denny, you know there aren't many |
| [00:50.47] | Who can sing a song the way that you do; let's go south." |
| [00:54.13] | Denny said, Zallie, golly, don't you think that I wish |
| [00:57.17] | I could play guitar like you." |
| [01:00.37] | Zal, Denny, and Sebastian sat (at the Night Owl) |
| [01:03.99] | And after every number they'd pass the hat. |
| [01:07.18] | McGuinn and McGuire still a-gettin higher in L.A., |
| [01:11.19] | You know where that's at. |
| [01:13.73] | And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [01:20.42] | When Cass was a sophomore, planned to go to Swathmore |
| [01:23.48] | But she changed her mind one day. |
| [01:26.93] | Standin' on the turnpike, thumb out to hitchhike, |
| [01:30.18] | "Take me to New York right away." |
| [01:33.06] | When Denny met Cass he gave her love bumps; |
| [01:36.92] | Called John and Zal and that was the Mugwumps. |
| [01:40.04] | McGuinn and McGuire couldn't get no higher |
| [01:43.15] | But that's what they were aimin' at. |
| [01:45.25] | And no one's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [01:53.45] | Mugwumps, high jumps, low slumps, big bumps - |
| [01:56.45] | Don't you work as hard as you play. |
| [01:59.98] | Make up, break up, everything is shake up; |
| [02:02.93] | Guess it had to be that way. |
| [02:06.21] | Sebastian and Zal formed the 'Spoonful; |
| [02:10.10] | Michelle, John, and Denny gettin' very tuneful. |
| [02:13.10] | McGuinn and McGuire just a-catchin' fire in L.A., |
| [02:16.96] | You know where that's at. |
| [02:19.47] | And everybody's gettin' fat except Mama Cass. |
| [02:59.10] | Broke, busted, disgusted, agents can't be trusted, |
| [03:02.30] | And Mitchie wants to go to the sea. |
| [03:05.78] | Cass can't make it; she says we'll have to fake it - |
| [03:08.71] | We knew she'd come eventually. |
| [03:12.38] | Greasin' on American Express cards; |
| [03:15.96] | Tents low rent, but keeping out the heat's hard. |
| [03:18.97] | Duffy's good vibrations and our imaginations |
| [03:22.05] | Can't go on indefinitely. |
| [03:25.39] | And California dreamin' is becomin' a reality. |
