When time stops but tears drop.
Everything in the world seems to stop and calm but still a tear is sliding down my cheeks.
Oh! Why do all the people have suddenly stopped,
Why all my pain has suddenly popped,
Why all I'm so lost,
Tell me is hate all my cost.
Why in the center of a road,
Drivers not driving, that's so odd,
Why all of a sudden, the rain stopped,
Why all of a sudden, my world has stopped.
But tell me, When I can't move.
Why does my life farewell echo through the empty cove?
Why when everything has stopped,
My pain still popped.
What is this so chaotic and unusual,
Everything stopped but something sliding over my face.
What is it?
Seems like pain exiting, a little bit.
Now I can describe it in some words,
no need for any more codes,
When time stops but my tears drop.
It's a sign of pain that exists but no one can see it pop.
Cause I am all alone,
Weeping still cannot be shown.

'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.
