Elton John - The Emperor's New Clothes Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • We bet on our lives and we bet on the horses
  • In that upstairs apartment
  • On orlando and 4th
  • And the rent was due and the rent man was knocking
  • Like a chinese proverb
  • We were always searching
  • Nightlifes a no-win but nobody noticed
  • How we killed off the bottles
  • Looking good on the surface
  • The dog days barked and the house cat got old
  • We were bonnie and clyde
  • In the emperors new clothes
  • And the tears never came
  • They just stayed in our eyes
  • We refused to admit that we wore this disguise
  • Every inch of us growing
  • Like pinocchios nose
  • As we walked around in the emperors new clothes
  • We flew by our wits and by the seat of our pants
  • In the state of illusion
  • In the nation of chance
  • And the repo was hauling the wreck wed been driving
  • As the dashboard madonna
  • Smiled back at us kindly
  • We cheated the system never batting an eyelid
  • Seeing only the good
  • Through the holes in our shoes
  • And our halos were rusty but we wore them proudly
  • We were two little gods
  • In the emperors new clothes
