Elton John Rare Masters Madman Across The Water



Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album madman across the water

I can see very well
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
And i can see it very well
There's a joke and i know it very well
It's one of those that i told you long ago
Take my word i'm a madman don't you know

Once a fool had a good part in the play
If it's so would i still be here today
It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way
They think it's very funny everything i say
Get a load of him, he's so insane
You better get your coat dear
It looks like rain


We'll come again next thursday afternoon
The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon
But is it in your conscience that you're after
Another glimpse of the madman across the water


I can see very well
There's a boat on the reef with a broken back
And i can see it very well
There's a joke and i know it very well
It's one of those that i told you long ago
Take my word i'm a madman don't you know


The ground's a long way down but i need more
Is the nightmare black
Or are the windows painted
Will they come again next week
Can my mind really take it
