Santa Claus modified snow peas

On the roof tops,on the roof tops,on the roof tops

So we're asleep in the same dream

Every day in the morning when you get up and crawl out of bed.

And the song titles are...? The Who covered the song written by Eddie Cochran in the 50s, but my first memory of the song is by the Beachboys. And I love Aretha Franklin's cover of Carole King's song -- I like both versions, really.
