Electric Light Orchestra : The ELO EP
Lyrics
1. CAN'T GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD
Midnight on the water
I saw the ocean's daughter
Walking on a wave she came
Staring as she called my name
And I can't get it out of my head,
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head
Breakdown on the shoreline,
Can't move, it's an ebbtide
Morning don't get here tonight,
Searching for her silver light
And I can't get it out of my head,
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head, no no
Bank job in the city
Robin Hood and William Tell and Ivanhoe and Lancelot,
They don't envy me
Sitting till the sun goes down,
In dreams the world keeps going round and round
And I can't get it out of my head,
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head, no no
No, I can't get it out of my head,
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cause I can't get it out of my head, no no no no no
2. STRANGE MAGIC
You're sailing softly through the sun
In a broken stone age dawn.
You fly so high.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
You're walking meadows in my mind,
Making waves across my time,
Oh no, oh no.
I get a strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
Oh, I'm never gonna be the same again,
Now I've seen the way it's got to end,
Sweet dream, sweet dream.
Strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic,
Got a strange magic.
It's magic, it's magic, it's magic.
Strange magic,
Oh, what a strange magic,
Oh, it's a strange magic.
Got a strange magic.
Got a strange magic
You know I got a strange magic
3. MA-MA-MA BELLE
Got love, if that's what you need
I got three or four babies sittin' on my knee
I got love waitin' for you
I come sneakin' round the corner of the avenue
You gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, or I will get you
You know you gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, before I get you
There's one thing that's on my mind
And that's getting hold of you before I serve my time
I'll keep on, with my heavy load
Till I see you come a strollin' down that open road
You gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, or I will get you
You know you gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, before I get you
I love you Ma-Ma-Ma Belle
That's why I want to get it all well I'm sure you can tell
I got, good soul, runnin' so deep
Gonna get you in the corner so that I can keep
Can't you hear me once Ma-Ma-Ma Belle
You gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, or I will get you
You know you gotta Ma-Ma-Ma Belle, before I get you
4. EVIL WOMAN
You made a fool of me,
But them broken dreams have got to end.
Hey, woman, you got the blues,
'Cause you ain't got no one else to use.
There's an open road that leads nowhere,
So just make some miles between here and there.
There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in.
You took my body and played to win.
Ha, ha, woman, it's a cryin' shame,
But you ain't got nobody else to blame.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Rolled in from another town,
Hit some gold, too hard to settle down.
But a fool and his money soon go sep'rate ways,
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze.
Ha, ha, woman, what you gonna do,
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you.
It's so good that you're feelin' pain,
But you better get your face on board the very next train.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman, how you done me wrong,
But now you're tryin' to wail a diff'rent song.
Ha, ha, funny, how you broke me up.
You made the wine, now you drink a cup.
I came runnin' ev'ry time you cried,
Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes.
Ha, ha, very nice to know
That you ain't got no place left to go.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
Evil woman.
