I Know There's an Answer

	A very solid album cut, featuring some fine lead vocals from Mike Love and Alan Jardine (on the chorus), and some playful gimmicks (the metallic clank, Mike Love's "a-doo-be-doo", and the sax which gives me goosebumps). A good song for today's political climate, written way back when.	Bruce Beatlefan	May 12, 2008

Lyrics

I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their saftey zones

Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

They come on like they're peaceful
But inside they're so uptight
They trip through their day
And waste all their thoughts at night

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself

Now how can I come on
And tell them the way that they live could be better

I know there's an answer
I know now but I have to find it by myself
