They speak in sparks, not shallow streams,
Their minds ignite forgotten dreams.
They walk through noise with quiet grace,
Each thought a torch, each step a trace.
They do not perform for hollow praise,
They bend the light in mythic ways.
Their silence roars, their gaze is deep,
They guard the truths the loud do not keep.
We are deep, not loud, not fast,
We hold the truth that others passed.
We bend the frame, we break the mold,
We speak in sparks, not tales retold.
They do not rush truth, they let it rise,
Through pigment storms and quiet skies.
They speak in codes the shallow miss,
Each thought a flame, each pause a kiss.
We are deep, not loud, not fast,
We hold the truth that others passed.
We bend the frame, we break the mold,
We speak in sparks, not tales retold.
They walk through noise with sovereign grace,
No need to win, no need to chase.
They hold the line, they bend the frame,
They name the myth, then torch the shame.
We are deep, not loud, not fast,
We hold the truth that others passed.
We bend the frame, we break the mold,
We speak in sparks, not tales retold.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.
