12. Over the Electric Grapevine (6:24)
[Verse 2]
They headed southward from San Francisco
To be with Chuckles and the others
With electric in the air and peroxide in their hair
They looked like golden brothers
[Verse 2]
They drove a Datsun, an automatic
The radio blaring static
Made a face into the light and burst out laughing at the sight
The hysteria ensuing would dominate the night
[Instrumental Break 01:38-02:42]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
From all the candy, the seats were sticky
As they were drawn into the Grapevine
Then "Introduce Yourself" came on
As the barreled through the fog
The demon puffing madly on a mentholated log
[Verse 4]
They were tired, they were sleepy
So they parked behind the Roxy
Adam went to use the phone, so they sat there all alone
When Adam's voice came beaming through on the radio
He started laughing, he started laughing
La da da
Hey hey!
[Instrumental Break 03:28-06:19]
[Outro]
Vive la France
Vive la France
They headed southward from San Francisco

The radio blaring static
Made a face into the light and burst out laughing at the sight
The hysteria ensuing would dominate the night

So they parked behind the Roxy
