Goodbye Yellow Brick Road


I always sing in videoke every weekend just at home. The moment I sing, I don't forget to hit the number 30635 on the remote control because this is the number combination for the song "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road". My desire to come back and live in the province is the force that drives to like this song. I also like the melody, it stimulates my singing apetite hehe. For those who don't know the lyrics of the song, here it is:

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

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

chorus
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
What do you think you'll do then
I bet that'll shoot down your 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
[repeat chorus]

Enjoy!
