Lyrics to "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" song by Elton John: When are you gonna come down When are you going to land I should have stayed on the farm I should h. .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.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (оригинал Elton John). Прощай, Дорога из желтого кирпича (перевод Алекс из Москвы). Oh I've finally decided my future lies. О, я твердо решил: моя будущность. Beyond the yellow brick road. What do you think you'll do then?
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. The fourth track on Elton John’s 1973 double album of the same name, and the second single from the album. Written by Elton and his co-songwriter Bernie Taupin, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road is about wanting to give up a life of opulence for a simpler life away from all the glitz and glamour.
