Lyric discussion by findsomepeace 

Cover art for Rockaria! lyrics by Electric Light Orchestra

i think that "the mayor" is wrong, it should say "the man", the Man is probably Jesus, the speaker is saying that the music was so pure, even Jesus was there lol

@findsomepeace the album includes a lyric sheet. It's definitely "the mayor," doesn't sound remotely like "the man," and there's certainly nothing to suggest Jesus.
