Peter Tork (born Peter Halsten Thorkelson, February 13, 1942) is an American musician and actor, best known as the keyboardist and bass guitarist of The Monkees.
Tork was born at the Doctor's Hospital, Washington, D.C. Although he was born in 1942, many news articles incorrectly report him as born in 1944 in New York City, as this was the date and place given on early Monkees press releases. He is the son of Virginia Hope (née Straus) and Halsten John Thorkelson, an economics professor at the University of Connecticut. His paternal grandfather was of Norwegian descent, while his mother was of half German Jewish and half British Isles ancestry. He began studying piano at the age of nine, showing an aptitude for music by learning to play several different instruments, including the banjo and acoustic and bass guitars. Tork attended Windham High School in Willimantic, Connecticut, and was a member of the first graduating class at E.O. Smith High School in Storrs, Connecticut. He attended Carleton College before he moved to New York City, where he became part of the folk music scene in Greenwich Village during the first half of the 1960s. While there, he befriended other up-and-coming musicians such as Stephen Stills.

Sometimes I wake up in the mornin'
My feet, my soul, my arms
My legs myself, my eggs
Are all fried
I've gotta do my exams today
I've read my books, turned up on time
But I haven't revised
I'm not getting along
I'm not gettin' the answer
I'm not getting along
I'm not getting along
I'm not gettin' the answer
I can't get out of my head
In the night, sometimes I wake up
Uncool, uptight
I'm tired of being tired
But in my dreams, my arms are open wide
Open wide
I open up my eyes
Open up my eyes
Everything is dark
I think I'm blind
I think I'm blind
I think I'm blind
I'm not getting along
I'm not gettin' the answer
I'm not getting along
(Too dumb to use the phone)
I'm not getting along
I'm not gettin' the answers
'Cause I can't get out of my head
No, I
No, I
No, I can't get out of my head
No, I
No, I
No, I can't get out of my head
This profession is my obsession
And this obsession is my depression
And this depression is my release
And this release will never cease
No, I
No, I
No, I can't get out of my head
No, I
No, I

Uncool, uptight
In my dreams my arms, myself is open wide

Walk away,
You empty head,
You're late she says
Your blonde head,

So you knock at the door,
The beat of your heart
Your cold empty heart,

I think you're crawling up my spine

Self denial fall apart
Follow mind follow heart
When I talk I wanna scream
All I know and all I've seen
Self contains so tightly packed
Once it's loose no holding back
All I need is in my mind
And the walls will fall in time
After months of senseless sleeping
Things were moving I was creeping
And it felt like time was ending
All the staircases descending
Like a broken mirror image
Wondering what I have a heart for
Still waiting for departure
And the world just keeps a-moving
And they all juts keep a-marching
On the way towards there solution
On a walk without confusion
Just avoiding stalled existence
Way above all the nonsense
Till I saw that they were liars
And I looked up then to deceit
And the world juts kept a-creeping
Walk away,
You empty head,
You're late she says
Your blonde head,
Your blonde head
So you knock at the door,
The beat of your heart
Your cold empty heart,
Your cold empty heart
I think you're crawling up my spine
I think you're crawling up my spine
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Don't you to stay,
Want you to stay
Walk away,
You empty head,
You're late she said
Your blonde head,
Your blonde head
So the knives on the street
There's a man on your cross
Cold empty cross,
Cold empty cross
I think you're crawling up my spine
I think you're crawling up my spine
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Want you to stay
Don't want you to stay

I walk away from your head
Off your head
Off your head
Hanging from your head
I walk

Your head
Your head
From your head
From your head
Over and over
Again and again
Keep my head down
It's my friend
Other wonders, I can't explain
As I fall into this life again
When it's over
In the end
My head's all empty
It's my friend
Withered under slated rain
As I fall into this life again
Prayin', I just can't get enough so I keep on
Prayin', I just can't get it up, so I keep on
Prayin', I just can't get enough so I keep on
Prayin'
Weather, thunder
Ample rain
I get my feet wet
I get my pain
Over and under fields of green
I get my head wet, I keep it clean
When it's over
In the end
My head's all empty
It's my friend
Other wonders, I can't explain
As I fall into this life again
Prayin', I just can't get enough so I keep on
Prayin', I just can't get it up, so I keep on
Prayin', I just can't get enough so I keep on
Prayin'
It's in my head

You wanna leave it but you can't forget about it

You wanna leave it but you can't forget about it

It's just the state of mind
It's just the state of mind
And mind is in state of incomprehension
A lack of meaning and lack of attention
It's just a waste of time
It's just a waste of time
Cause time is running out and i worry about you
I've got the feeling i'm hopeless around you
You wanna leave it but you can't forget about it

I've got the feeling i'm hopeless around you
So uncharacteristic of you
To let me get so close to the mystery of you
It's all a misunderstanding you see
I never meant to let anybody get close to me
It can't have been easy on you to get used to grips
with an idea, an idea
So uncharacteristic of you
To let me get so close to the mystery of you
You always want head. We love it. We always have to watch, right.
Right. And if you've got a lot of hair we fucking turn into Vidal Sasoon
All of a sudden. We got like scrunchies, banana clips comin out of nowhere.
Hairspray *SSS* Good. Good. Front row seats. I like that with the lips.
The thing you're doing with the lips is good.
You know what's so weird. Why does this happen?
This is a weird thing. Phenomanon. Right, sometimes guys,
You're having sex, right. And everything's going great.
Everything's you know Right.
All of a sudden you hear like a voice comes into our... our brains.
Starts telling us to say shit like... Yeah say that! Say that!
That's perfect! Say that right now. Right, and you're like Yeah.
I'll fucking say that. You just grab her hair and you whisper... eghhh.
You don't even think about it. Just say it ya fucking say say things.
You hear what I say? You like that huh? Right, you say- but sometimes
You say some shit and you think of it like two hours later and you're
Like "What the fuck was I talking about!" And you get like embarrased.
I was with a girl recently, right. I was totally just in the zone.
Out of nowhere I was like...
"Uh yea my dick feels like corn!"
Sounded good at the time!
She didn't even miss a beat she was like
"Give me the butter baby give me the butter!"
*punch*
Come on Orville Redenbacher... pop that pussy.
*punch*
We should just have an orgy right here right now.
Let's just turn off the fucking lights and everybody just feel around!
Let's turn off the lights and play a game called uh
"Who's in my Mouth?"
What did you say? Careful? What are you like my lifeguard?
Careful... careful Dane! What are you spotting my jokes?
I think you've got it alright in your Head yeah I think you got it alright in your Head. There's something pretty fucked up with your conscience but I'd say you got it alright in your Head. I ain't gonna shut down all my windows I ain't gonna shut down like before. Got another flag here says my mailman maybe someone stole yours from your door?
If I only can't decide
The crystal eight ball's on the table
Thanks for nothing
Here's my only prayer
Thin air
Long ago
The other night
Far, far away
As the head falls off the table
Crashes to the floor and shatters
Dust and glass are blowing everywhere
Down there
Through the wall I hear you laughing
You're so special I don't like you
You will always be my only friend
In that final look
Does the deer forgive the wolf ?
You've stolen my fascination
You've amothered my holy addiction
And now I'm soaked in you
Like fat white worms or sad haikus
I woke up
& the worldwas on the fire
I woke up
& the swine had conspired
To erase all the faith
That I have in the human race
I woke up
& the world was on fire
It's all in your head
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?
In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy
Beneath the toxic water
Where my secrets come to meet
In catacombs of shadow
& wet skies of mystery
I found a soggy savior
A painted lady made of eyes
She sings to me, my deceit
'your life is a lie'
I woke up
& the world was on fire
I woke up
& the swine had conspired
To erase all the faith
That I have in the human race
I woke up
& the world
Fire
It's all in your head
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?
In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy
If we stand too still,
They're gonna eat us alive !
Watch your tongue,
Teach them young...
Medicate the mutiny.
Better living through chemistry
Self destruction's patriotic.
Money fixes everything.
Wach your tongue,
Teach them young...
We're taught
To love & hate
To fight & obey...
I've lost my mind,
But I've found my way
(in this nest of lies
Every wall has eyes)
It's all in your head
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?
In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease
It's all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy
I remember when I met u, baby

You go to my head till I'm losing my mind
Your beautiful words stretch me out on a blanket of sky
I don't want to come down
No I don't want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
You go to my head, I dream I am loved
You're flowing through me like a river of poetry
I don't want to come down
No I don't want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
So keep feeding the fire, I can't get any higher
Till the night burns with the fire of a thousand stars
You go to my head and I know I'm alive
You could waken the dead with your beautiful mind
I don't want to come down
No I don't want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
I don't want to come down
No I don't want to come down
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
Just want to stay lost in your eyes
Oh babe how many words do you know
That can change the world?
It's clear we've got a long long way to go
The pain I know I wouldn't wish on anyone
If I could vanish it I'd be a king
Then I'd be a king
It's so intense I've no defense
for seven cents I'd run away
I cannot hide I cannot cry
Am I a hypocrite to pray?
What was that you said?
It's all just in my head
Oh say now don't you look at me that way
I can see behind your eyes
It's clear we'll live to fight another day
When we make love I'm alive
I want to touch you
and then we're both on the wire
We're in a lovin overload
We're in a lovin overload
It's so intense I've no defense
for seven cents I'd run away
I cannot hide I cannot cry
Am I a hypocrite to pray?
I'll make amends I'll tell my friends
for seven cents I'd run away
I'm out of breath I'm out of street
Am I a prisoner of fate?
What was that you said?
There's 50 men in your bed. Oh, that's what I said that you'd get. I'd sit and pick you them But then, then again, it's your head.
Screaming in horror, deafening in hate.
Bleeding with fear, writhing in pain.
Retribution.
Vindication.
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN!
Dying slow, wash away my thoughts.
Flying low, evil in its force.
Screaming in pain, screaming in pain, screaming in pain, scream!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
MY BRAIN IS POUNDING!
Let me out!
Let me in!
Let me out!
Let me in!
I want in!
Cancer eating, cancer feeding, cancer eaten!
Vindication!
Feeling so old, retribution untold.
SCREAMING IN PAIN!
SCREAMING IN PAIN!
SCREAMING IN PAIN!
SCREAMING IN PAIN!
My brain is pounding!
Mass redemption, hate obsession.
Monstrous, distort in fear.
Ostracize with staring eyes,
Right this wrong until it's near.
SHUDDERING IN DISGUST!
No love, no love, no love, no love, no love, no love......
POUNDING!
POUNDING!
POUNDING!
(Breathing)
Why am I asleep
Everything around is so unreal
(Speaking)
Double truth and half lies
Drowning in a workshop full of habitat won't pay
No conversation, feels strange vibration
Don't want it anymore
Check my head out the door
(Guilty)
World has gone insane
Waiting for a bomb to clean the air
(Filthy)
Little mind is working
Taken through the garbage heap of panic and despair
No conversation, feels strange vibration
Don't want it anymore, ain't gonna find
No deviation, no inspiration
'Cause everyone a whore
Check my head out the door
No conversation, feels strange vibration
Don't want it anymore, ain't gonna find
No deviation, no inspiration
'Cause everyone a whore
Check my head out the door

Lonely little girl on your island,
won't you come to me
I'm in a lonely little upstairs room without you
Won't you come to me...
Come on... Come on... Come on...
Laugh about it, cry about it
Wouldn't go nowhere without it
Get up early, get a worm,
even if you're not a bird
It's mine, mine, mine,...
Take my heart, take my soul,
take my love - still want more
Well I'm keeping my head
Keeping my head.
Lonely little girl on your island,
won't you come to me
I'm in a place I think I know
you've seen before
Come to me...
Laugh about it, die without it,
couldn't think a thing without it
In the front it's getting cold,
in the back it's even older
It's mine, mine, yours, mine, his, hers,
it, shit, not, hot, it's... a lot
Take my soul, take my heart,
take my legs, private parts
But I'm keeping my head
keeping my head
keeping my head
keeping my head
I would die without you
At least that's what you said
In my head
I've been making dynamite
In my garden shed
In my head
Come out my head....
"Hi, it's me. Are you there? Pick up. Come on. Look, I've got loads of your stuff
around the house still. Are you gonna come and pick it up? I just don't want to see
it anymore. Fuck you then."
Elvis lives in my room
Tied up to my bed
Love me til I'm tender in my (laughs) head
Come out my head....
"Hi, it's me again. I'm really sorry about that last call. I just....I don't know
what to say at the moment. I just....um....I really miss you. It just....come out
All the world is lying, sleeping
Everyone in bed
Me, I'm still out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Turn on my own head
Me, I'm still out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
All the world is in darkness
Every light is dead
Me, I'm still out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Me I'm still out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
All my world is in ruin
Every dream is dead
Me, I'll be out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Me, I'll be out flying
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head
Tryin' to turn on my own head

Hello love
Welcome to the dungeon
You love what you get

Your body is my private party
And one you won't forget
I'll get you wet
Chocolate with your lemonade
Chardonnay with your blow
God is what September made
I thought that you would know
Girl, you should know
All you've got to do is give me head
All of my purple life
I've been looking for a dame
That would wanna be my wife
That was my intention main
If we cannot make babies
Maybe we can make some time
Fuck so pretty, you and me
Erotic City come alive
All you've got to do is give me
All I want to do is give you head
One time for the dojah
Two times for the potion
Three, four, five for them hoes and
Baby, that's a three four
Fine, bring them hoes in
Put 'em high for a real bitch
Give 'em all the high and they still bitch
Baby girl, I can make you feel rich
Show 'em how to hit the kill switch
It's my birthday
We'll be high all night
I'mma do your body
I'mma fuck you right
All you've got to do is
Slow down, girl
I'mma show you how it need to go down girl
It's about to be a showdown, girl
Every time I comb my hair
Thoughts of you get in my eyes
You're a sinner, I don't care
I just want your creamy thighs
We can fuck until the dawn
Making love till cherry's gone
Erotic City, can't you see?
Fuck so pretty, you and me
All you've got to do is give me
All I want to do is touch your body

How can I put this in a way
So as not to offend or unnerve?
But there's a rumor going all round
That you ain't been getting served
They say that you ain't you know what
In, baby, who knows how long?
It's hard for me to say what's right
When all I wanna do is wrong
I got the jizz from
A friend of yours named Jazzy Rae
She said you told her a fantasy
That made her want to play
Something about a little box
With a mirror and a tongue inside
What she told me then got me so hot
I knew that we could slide
I want to
Touch your body
I want to watch you
Touch your body
Just
Touch your body
I want you
Touch your body
Touch your body
I want to watch you
Touch your body
I want to
Touch your body

She came shortly after I was born
Now I can't go in the rooms I used to own
My world is full of strangers and I spend the day in chains
I just want to go outside and run around
Help me, I'm burning, I'm burning
Help me break a window
For the lonely days, white fur hat, little red coat
Sleep in the big bed like a king
Sunlight through the window on my shiny brown head
And love behind my ears and on my back
On my back
Lay my head down and try to forget her
I was just somewhere else but now I find myself here
Help me, I'm burning, I'm burning
Help me break a window
Help me crack the door open
Help me, I'm burning inside
Think about leaving, think about running away
Beyond the backyard, beyond the highway
Someone who'll kiss my face, let me sleep inside
Do you think I'll get there, do you think I'll make it
Do you think I'll make it
Help me, I'm burning, I'm burning
Help me break a window
Help me crack the door open
So sad the girl I had
Lost her head and it went so bad
Blue her two eyes they were dead
"Mirror mine and see", she said
One of these mornings
I don't know her
One of these mornings
I think I owe her
Once she signed a piece of my mind
Girlie scenes and gasoline
Porno pony she did ride
Forsaken long lost Limousine
I hear her talkin'
I like to hear her talkin'
See her walkin'
Like to watch watch her come walkin'
She lost it and
Man did it get bad
Lazy eyes were dead
"Mirror mine and see", she said
Once she drew a picture
Stuck it in my pocket
Find somewhere to reach her
'Cause she let me rock it
See her walkin'
