Elton John - Madman Across The Water (BBC Sounds For Saturday / 29th April 1972) Lyrics

Lyrics Madman Across The Water (BBC Sounds For Saturday / 29th April 1972) - Elton John



The next song is the title track from an album we made
Or album we've made
And it's called "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 battle long went 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?
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
