Roky Erickson

Miss Elude

Miss Elude Miss Elude

You don't want to make me really blue

Miss Elude Miss Elude

You don't want to make me really blue

Unreal out of place no tune no crooner can prove

And unreal out of place no tune no crooner can prove

Let them sneak up on you so fast

That you ain't got no mind no more to lose

You ain't got no mind no more no mind no more you got to lose

You ain't got no mind no more no mind no more you got to lose

I respect these blues

I don't mean they get to

I respect these blues

I don't mean they get to

I respect these blues

I don't mean they get through

And I pray, Miss Elude

Someday my love will get to you

Miss Elude Miss Elude

I can't tame Miss Elude

Miss Elude Miss Elude

I can't tame Miss Elude

But the blues are behind me

When I identify the thing that hates me is the blues

I love the blues
