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.
