Thanks to the Neil Diamond thread
I now have Gary Puckett and the Union Gap in my head.

Evil, evil earworms!

3. The connection is in my head
I progress from one song to another, and for some reason Neil Diamond always takes me to Gary Puckett. I really can't explain it.

4. I never knew he did that song
I know the Monkees did it. Davy sang lead. Unless we're talking about two different songs.

17. "Look out, here comes tomorrow" -- he did that in DC the other
night! Monkees had great songs thanks to great writers. He apologized for singing and writing them, tho, a-hole.

8. Oh, no, not this evil earworm

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you is way out of line
Better run, girl,
You're much too young, girl
With all the charms of a woman
You've kept the secret of your youth
You led me to believe
You're old enough
To give me Love
And now it hurts to know the truth, Oh,
Beneath your perfume and make-up
You're just a baby in disguise
And though you know
That it is wrong to be
Alone with me
That come on look is in your eyes, Oh,
So hurry home to your mama
I'm sure she wonders where you are
Get out of here
Before I have the time
To change my mind
'Cause I'm afraid we'll go too far, Oh,
Young girl

10. Yeah, that's the one
Thanks

Now, it's followed by

Woman, have you got cheating on your mind?

A woman wears a certain look when she is on the move
And a man can always tell what's on her mind
Well I hate to say it darlin, but that's looks all over you...

ARGH!

12. Isn't that "Get out of my mind"?
Young girl, get out of my mind
My thoughts of you are way out of line
Better run, girl
You're much too young girl


Jeebus, that sounds like a pedophile warning!
