Lyrics

He was a stran ger.

He walked in look ing for dan ger.

When he stares at you, he can chain you down and make you fall in love.

Heav en knows, yeah, they made him out of fire and ros es with an at ti tude, but he’s sweet e nough to put it on your tongue.

He can be ev ’ry thing you’ve ev er dreamed.

Ooh, Mis ter E lec tric Blue, I wan na dance like you.

How did you get so cool?

(You’ve got it, ah, ah, you’ve got it.) And oh, you got e lec tric soul.

You let the good times roll, Mis ter E lec tric Blue.

(You’ve got it, ah, ah, you’ve got it.)

They say that he fell from space

or some su per nat u ral (C)place.

Mis ter E lec tric Blue,

I know (C)I be lieve in you.

He’s a man’s man, a good, hard work ing A mer i can.

But he ain’t the guy you’d wan na fight; he’ll make you bite the dirt.

And he said, (F)“Watch the way you talk to me if you (C)want to keep your (G)two front teeth.” Ooh, ah, you’ve got it.) (Mis ter E lec tric, Mis ter E lec tric, Mis ter E lec tric, Mis ter E lec tric, (C)Mis ter E lec tric, Mis ter E lec tric, (G)Mis ter E lec tric, Mis ter E lec tric.)

They say that he fell from space,

from a su per nat u ral (C)place.

Mis ter E lec tric Blue,
