この曲も良く聴きました。あのモータウンからデビューした黒っぽい雰囲気の白人バンド。テンプテーションズが唄っていた曲をカヴァーしたのが大ヒットとなった。
Never met a girl could make me feel the way that you do (You're alright)
Whenever I'm asked what makes my dreams real
I tell them you do (You're out of sight)
Well twiddley dee, twiddley dum
Look out baby 'cause here I come
(*)
I'm bringing you a love that's true (get ready, get ready)
Start making love to you (get ready, get ready)
Don't you know here I'm coming on my way, yeah (get ready, here I come)
You wanna play hide and seek with love, let me remind you
(You're alright)
Lovin' you're gonna' miss, and the time it takes to find you
(You're out of sight)
Well feel fi, fo fo fum
Look out baby, cause here I come
(Repeat *)
All my friends shouldn't want me to I think I'll understand
(You're alright)
Hope I get to you before they do, 'cause that's how I planned it
(You're out of sight)
Well twiddley dee, twiddley dum
Look out baby 'cause here I come
Repeat (*)
get ready = 準備しとけよって何を？
out of sight = 素晴らしい
twiddley dee, twiddley dum = おまじないの言葉
Rare Earth とは希土類と訳されているがいわゆるレアメタルのなかに含まれる元素。地球上で希少価値というバンド名だろう。
