    @PartySanCTG these "incoherent" lyrics by the genius Van Dyke Parks, equally "incoherent" on 'Surf's Up', are perhaps the most aurally pleasing and atmospherically intoxicating collection of words ever penned

    One of the greatest songs ever. over and over the crow cries uncover the cornfield. Don´t forget the amazing bass play by Carol Kaye.

    I hate to agree with Mike, but... yeah, the lyrics are definitely incoherent.

    I prefer this to Brian Wilson's version on SMiLE, simply because this was when their voices were in their prime
