Kilroy Was Here Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

There's a fellow roaming round the street 

I think most of all I'd like to meet 

I must consider him a clever lad 

Making like a young sir galahad 

Everywhere I go I think he's been 

He autographs the walls around the scene 

If you look hard enough you'll find him there 

In rooms of public places everywhere 

Kilroy was here 

Left his name around the place 

Kilroy was here 

Thought I've never seen his face 

On a short vacation with my friends 

I found I had time on my hands to spare 

Surveyed my telescope around the land 

And saw his name imprinted in the sand 

Kilroy was here 

Left his name around the place 

Kilroy was here 

Thought I've never seen his face 

On a short vacation with my friends 

I found I had time on my hands to spare 

Surveyed my telescope around the land 

And saw his name imprinted in the sand 

I wonder could he be a cavalier 

Or a roving musketeer 

Or just a dustman who's insane 

Everyplace regardless where or when 

.... strikes again and again and again 

If I ever meet that man at all 

I'll hang a plague upon my bedroom wall 

A monument erected in his name 

Would help to contribute his name 

Kilroy was here 

Left his name around the place 

Kilroy was here 

Thought I've never seen his face 

On a short vacation with my friends 

I found I had time on my hands to spare 

Surveyed my telescope around the land 

And saw his name imprinted in the sand 

Kilroy was here 

Though I've never seen his face
