They were six fine English boys Who knew each other in Birmingham They bought a drum and guitar Started a rock-roll band And Johnny played little violin And Bobby Joe played the big violin The one that stands on the floor They were all in the rock-roll band Their first song sounded like this Please get me a witness Please get me a witness Right off, they needed a name Someone said, 'How 'bout the Renegades ?' Johnny said, 'Well I don't know. I prefer E.L.O.' I love their 'Mr. Blue Skies' Almost my favorite is 'Turn to Stone' And how 'bout 'Telephone Line'? I love that E.L.O.
