Electric Light Orchestra - The Minister текст песни

Played too hard and he died too young

To be certain of earning his [burnt out/word of? ] love

He won a place in history

And his name will live eternally

Lived the life of a movie star

And he waved to the people from a big black car

Down in a book with the greatest names

As a lonely maid cried take [in/the? ] pain

Tell me a story minister

There aint no time left to lose

Ten man tried in the dead of night

? ? ? the great mans final words to right

In a room that was soft and red

The great man spoke outside my head

Tell me a story minister

There aint no time left to lose
