by ELO, as performed by Fountains of Wayne

Midnight, on the water
I saw the ocean's daughter
Walking on a wave she came
Staring as she called my name.

And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head.

Breakdown, on the shoreline
Can't move, it's an ebb tide
Morning don't get here tonight
Searching for her silver light.

And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head, oh no

Day job, in the city
Robin Hood & William Tell & Ivanhoe & Lancelot
They don't envy me
Sitting as the sun goes down
In dreams the world keeps spinning round & around

And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head.

No, I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my whole world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head, oh no
