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 can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open this
Boy's too young to be singing the blues
Ah
Ah
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl
In the woods hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
Ah
Ah
What do you think you'll do
Then I bet they'll shoot down the plane
It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again
Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground
Ah
So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
Going back to my brow
Back to the howling old owl
In the woods hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road
