Electric Light Orchestra - Mr. Blue Sky
This song is actually completely opposite from my current mood. i’m worn the hell out and it’s only Tuesday. Sitting in front of a computer all day and learning a new software system is no joke especially when you’re in a job where you are typically using your own personal creativity, social & counseling skills. The 14 hour work days have been killer. But, I’m honestly just happy that I am still working when everyday I hear more and more about how worse the economy is getting and look at the amount of people losing jobs. However, today I am feeling pretty optimistic and that is not from a blind look at the stimulus plan that has been signed (which I need to read fully), but more from my own intuition.
Mr. Blue Sky is probably the happiest song you’ll ever hear in life. It’s just so chipper, beatlesque, the type of lame i love, and perfect to me. It captures you in a joyful mood regardless of what you’re feeling. Enjoy
Sun is shinin’ in the sky
There ain’t a cloud in sight
It’s stopped rainin’
Everybody’s in a play
And don’t you know
It’s a beautiful new day
Runnin’ down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly
In the city on the streets
Where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong
Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration
Mr. Blue Sky’s up there waitin’
And today is the day we’ve waited for
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong
Hey there Mr. Blue
We’re so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
Hey there Mr. Blue
We’re so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
Mr. Blue you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night
Creepin’ over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I’ll remember you this way
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long
Where did we go wrong
Hey there Mr. Blue
We’re so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
