Edison Lyrics
[Verse 1: Barry Gibb]
He made electric lights to read
He gave us light today
He gave us cylinders to please
When Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
[Verse 2: Robin Gibb]
Edison set the world on fire
He really made their day
Station to station, many wires
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
[Chorus: Barry Gibb]
Oh, how, look at us now
We've still got a lot to learn
But it's someone else's turn
Edison's here to stay
Edison's here to stay
[Verse 3: Robin Gibb]
All of the world can taste his glory
All of the people say
"You'll be the man to write his story"
Edison's here to stay
Edison's here to stay
[Chorus: Barry Gibb]
Oh, how, look at us now
We've still got a lot to learn
But it's someone else's turn
Edison's here to stay
Edison's here to stay
[Verse 4: Barry and Robin Gibb]
He made electric lights to read
He gave us light today
He gave us cylinders to please
When Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
[Bridge: Robin Gibb]
You'll be the man to write his story
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
[Outro: Robin and Barry Gibb]
All of the world can hear his story
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
Edison came to stay
