Illusions In G Major Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

An' on the seven seas, there was a phantom ship a comin' 

Shinin' on the dead of night, I heard the crew a hummin' 

Tunes that sounded like the Rolling Stones and Leonard Cohen 

But they didn't know the words so I assumed that they was foreign 

No, no 

But I heard them just the same 

Oh doctor, let me teach 'em 

I just wanna please 'em, now 

I said, "Doctor, let me teach 'em" 

I just wanna please 'em, now 

I looked up in the sky there was a phantom plane comin' 

Shinin' in the dead of night, I heard the pilot sayin' 

Poems that are written by John Keats and Robert Browning 

He didn't know the words so I suppose that it was nothin' 

No, no, no 

But I heard them just the same 

But doctor, let me teach 'em 

I just wanna please 'em, now 

I said, "Doctor, let me teach 'em" 

I just wanna please 'em, now 

Hey 

So doctor, please believe me, I know you won't deceive me 

But do these things I'm seein' have any hidden meaning? 

It's all good entertainment, it doesn't cost a penny 

So please doc, let me teach 'em, if I could only reach 'em 

And I heard them just the same 

Oh doctor, let me teach 'em 

I just wanna please 'em, now 

I said, "Doctor, let me teach 'em" 

I just wanna please 'em, now
