    Default Solved: Does anyone recall this song?

    I remember hearing the following song briefly in Los Angeles around 1969/70. The lyrics I remember started off being spoken in a deep voice "Mr. Blue, we've got our eyes on you. (Then singing) What will it take, a broken arm a broken leg?

    Anyone have a clue about this song?

    Clear Light- Mr. Blue
    However,they're singing about a broken heart,a broken head-not arm or leg
    Here are the lyrics


    CLEAR LIGHT MR. BLUE LYRICS

    Good morning Mister Blue, we've got our eyes on you.
    The evidence is clear, that you've been scheming.
    You like to steal away and while away the day.
    You like to spend an hour dreaming.
    What will it take, to whip you into line?
    A broken heart? A broken head?
    It can be arranged. It can be arranged.

    Step softly Mister Blue, we know what's best for you.
    We know where your precious dreams will take you.
    You've got a slot to fill, and fill that slot you will.
    You'll learn to love it, or we'll break you.
    Oh, what will it take, to whip you into line?
    A broken heart? A broken head?
    It can be arranged. It can be arranged.

    Be careful Mister Blue this phase you're going through,
    Can lead you nowhere else, but to disaster.
    Excuse us while we grin, you've worn our patience thin.
    It's time to show you who is your master.
    What will it take, to whip you into line?
    A broken heart? A broken head?
    It can be arranged. It can be arranged.

    Don't worry Mister Blue, we'll take good care of you.
    Just think of it as sense and not surrender.
    But never think again, that you can think again,
    Or you'll get something you'll remember.
    What will it take to whip you into line?
    A broken heart? A broken head?
    It can be arranged. It can be arranged.

    You are wonderful. As you could see my memory messed some of the lyrics up of the decades. Thank you very much for your time.
