Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

This boy's too young to be singing the blues

Where the dogs of society howl

I didn't sign up with you

Hunting the horny back toad

I'm not a present for your friends to open

Back to the howling old owl in the woods

I should have listened to my old man

It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics

I should have stayed on the farm

When are you gonna come down

You know you can't hold me forever

Oh I've finally decided my future lies

You can't plant me in your penthouse

I bet that'll shoot down the plane

I'm going back to my plough

When are you going to land

Maybe you'll get a replacement

Back to the howling old owl in the woods

Mongrels who ain't got a penny

Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

[ 0-5 sec ]

So goodbye yellow brick road

What do you think you'll do then

Beyond the yellow brick road

There's plenty like me to be found
