Laugh, Laugh - Beau Brummels, The (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Laugh, Laugh (Beau Brummels, The, 1964). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-11-28. "Keeping the Oldies & Classics Alive"
"Laugh, Laugh," written by guitarist Ron Elliott, was the Beau Brummels' first entry onto the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1964 and rose to the #15 position in 1965 (Whitburn, 2013). The recording was produced by Sylvester Stewart (aka "Sly Stone") (Last, 2011). The Beau Brummels, a San Francisco based band, is "acknowledged by some as the first true folk-rock group, predating the Byrds. They are credited as the first American band to successfully integrate the British sound. They anticipated the psychedelic themes that would characterize the San Francisco sound" (S. Salter, encyclopedia, 2022).

Lyrics:
I hate to say it, but I told you so
Don't mind my preachin' to you
I said, don't trust 'em, baby, now you know
You don't learn every thing there is to know in school
Wouldn't believe me when I gave advice
I said that he was a tease
If you want help you better ask me now
So be sincere, convince me with a pretty please
Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me
Laugh, laugh you met a guy
Who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely
Oh-so lonely
Don't think I'm being funny when I say
You got just what you deserve
I can't help feeling you found out today
You thought you were too good, you got a lot of nerve
Won't say I'm sorry for the things I said
I'm glad he packed up to go
You kept on bragging he was yours instead
Found you don't know every thing there is to know
Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me
Laugh, laugh you met a guy
Who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely
Oh-so lonely
Before I go, I got to say one thing
Don't close your ears to me
Take my advice and you'll find out that being
Just another girl won't cause you misery
Don't say you can't get any boy to call
Don't be so smug or else
You'll find you can't get any boy at all
You'll wind up an old lady sitting on the shelf
Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die
It seemed so funny to me
Laugh, laugh you met a guy
Who taught you how it feels to be
Lonely
Oh-so lonely
Lonely
Oh-so lonely
