Monkees Miscellaneous Daily Nightly "Daily Nightly" by Mike Nesmith Dark and rolling figures move Through prisms of no color. Hand in hand they walk the night But never know each other. Passion passed in neon lights Light up the jewelled traveler, Lost in scenes of smoke-filled dreams Find questions but no answer. Startled eyes that sometimes see Phantasmagoric splendor Pirouette down palmsied paths, With pennies for the vendor. Salvation tears [???] but just in time It takes to pay the dancer. Once again, such anxious men Find questions but no answers. The night has gone And taken its infraction While red-rimmed [???] eyes Hope there will be a next one... Terror signs look down upon A world that glitters glibly And mountainsides put arms around The unsuspecting city. Secondhands in minds of slow Are moving even faster Toward bringing down someone who's found The questions but no answer... --The Monkees, 1967 from "Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones, Ltd."
