About Mr. Blue Sky

"Mr. Blue Sky" is a song by the rock group Electric Light Orchestra. The song forms the fourth and last track on the "Concerto for a Rainy Day" suite on side three of the original two-LP set. The song features a heavily vocoded voice singing the phrase "Mister Blue Sky", (from 2:23 to 2:39, or from 2:20 to 2:34 on the 30th anniversary CD). Although the ending vocoded voice may sound like "Mister Blue Sky-yi", it is actually "Please turn me over" as it is the end of side three, and the listener is instructed to flip the LP over. .

Mr. Blue Sky Lyrics

[00:00.64] Morning! Today's forecast calls for blue skies
[00:05.88]
[00:15.00] The sun is shining in the sky
[00:18.40] There ain't a cloud in sight
[00:21.62] It's stopped raining
[00:23.18] Everybody's in the play
[00:25.45] And don't you know, it's a beautiful new day
[00:30.02] Hey, hey, hey!
[00:31.71] Running down the avenue
[00:34.93] See how the sun shines brightly in the city
[00:39.59] All the streets where once was pity
[00:42.47] Mr. Blue Sky is living here today!
[00:46.45] Hey, hey, hey!
[00:48.54] Mr. Blue Sky
[00:50.01] Please tell us why
[00:51.55] You had to hide away for so long (so long)
[00:56.00] Where did we go wrong?
[00:59.58] Mr. Blue Sky
[01:01.16] Please tell us why
[01:02.58] You had to hide away for so long (so long)
[01:06.85] Where did we go wrong?
[01:10.05]
[01:29.38] Hey, you with the pretty face
[01:31.72] Welcome to the human race!
[01:35.15] A celebration
[01:36.66] Mr. Blue Sky's up there waiting
[01:39.21] And today is the day we've waited for
[01:43.55] Ah, ah, ah
[01:45.25] Oh, Mr. Blue Sky
[01:47.03] Please tell us why
[01:48.38] You had to hide away for so long (so long)
[01:52.74] Where did we go wrong?
[01:56.59] Hey there Mr. Blue!
[01:59.02] We're so pleased to be with you
[02:01.84] Look around, see what you do
[02:04.58] Everybody smiles at you
[02:07.05] Hey there Mr. Blue!
[02:09.63] We're so pleased to be with you
[02:12.63] Look around, see what you do
[02:14.88] Everybody smiles at you!
[02:20.25] Mr. Blue Sky
[02:24.45] Mr. Blue Sky
[02:29.68] Mr. Blue Sky
[02:36.42] Mr. Blue, you did it right
[02:39.41] But soon comes Mr. Night
[02:42.61] Creeping over, now his hand is on your shoulder
[02:46.64] Never mind, I'll remember you this
[02:50.86] I'll remember you this way!
[02:53.02] Mr. Blue Sky
[02:54.12] Please tell us why
[02:55.93] You had to hide away for so long (so long)
[03:00.01] Where did we go wrong?
[03:03.67] Hey there Mr. Blue (sky)
[03:06.02] We're so pleased to be with you (sky)
[03:08.83] Look around see what you do (blue)
[03:11.43] Everybody smiles at you
[03:15.53]
[04:50.58] Please turn me over
[04:55.53]
