Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

John Elton

When are you gonna come down

When are you going to land

I should have stayed on the farm

I should have listened to my old man

You know you cant hold me forever

I didnt sign up with you

Im not a present for your friends to open

This boys too young to be singing the blues

So goodbye yellow brick road

Where the dogs of society howl

You cant plant me in your penthouse

Im going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods

Hunting the horny back toad

Oh Ive finally decided my future lies

Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think youll do then

I bet thatll shoot down your plane

Itll take you a couple of vodka and tonics

To set you on your feet again

Maybe youll get a replacement

Theres plenty like me to be found

Mongrels who aint got a penny

Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
