The third and last #1 for the Monkees was written by former Kingston Trio member John Stewart, who had a Top 5 record himself in 1979 with "Gold." The group was asked by their label to change one word in Stewart's lyrics, from "Now you know how funky I can be" to "Now you know how happy I can be." This video from their TV series shows the band clowning around and not taking themselves too seriously.
