When are you gonna come down?
When are you going to land?
I should have stayed on the farm
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 is too young to be singing

Ah 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 i
