Dialogue - Live in '75
Are you optimistic 'bout the way that things are going?
No, I never think of it at all
Don't it make you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
Well, I try to mind my business, when there's no business at all
Nobody's business
When it's time to function as a feeling, human being
Will your Bachelor of Arts help you get by?
To study further, a few more years or so
I also hope to keep a steady high
My, my, my
And will you try to change things?
Use the power that you have
The power of a million new ideas?
What is this power you speak of and the need for things to change?
I always thought that everything was fine
Every little thing that's on my mind, yeah
Don't you feel the pressure just closing in around?
No, the campus here is very, very free
Oh, don't it make you angry the way war is dragging on?
Well, I hope your president knows what he's into, I don't know
Thanks to God, we'll go, yeah
Don't you see the starvation in the city where you live?
All the needless hunger, all the needless pain?
I haven't been there lately, the country is so fine
My neighbor don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
Who knows what's on my mind? Yeah
Get down, get down
Oh, thank you for the talk, you know, you really eased my mind
I was still worried by the shapes of things, things to come
Well, if you had my outlook, your feelings would be numb
And you'd always think everything was fine
Everything was fine, yeah
Oh, yeah
We all gonna make it
Ooh, yeah
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
We can make it happen
Yeah, yeah, yeah
We can change the world

Thank you very much, The Beach Boys, put your hands together
Michael, this is so crazy, we could be busted, Michael
These people are getting out of hand
What do you say we get them a little more out of hand?
All this started at the Caribou Ranch
We were recording the seventh album up there
And The Beach Boys came up to look at the ranch
They came up for a couple hours to check it out
And they wound up staying all night and this song resulted
This is the beginning of this epoch in Rock n' Roll
No, I never think of it at all
Don't it make you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
Well, I try to mind my business, when there's no business at all
