This week’s assignment comes from Clay:
"It is 1966 and you have been asked to submit a song for a new band that will be featured on a television show called The Monkees….”
lyrics
I'll bring you wine & a song to your front door
Who could ever ask for more
There's not so much we can do until the night falls
Can't you hear me call
I'll bring you fun in the sun if you'd like
we can even ride a bike
But before we go out, we'll stay in
Let the adventure begin
We've got our whole lives set ahead
That's something we cannot forget
I'll turn off the TV and pull the shades
Don't you know we've got it made
Got it made, day to day
Hear me when I say
We've got our whole lives set ahead
That's something we cannot forget
We've got our whole lives set ahead
'Cause baby, you with me, that's the best
You'll bring me cups & cakes, birds & bees
You've got everything I need
I'll bring you wine & a song to your front door
Who could ever ask for more
