Elton John "The Scaffold" testo

The Scaffold

In Orient where wise I wasTo please the way I liveCome give the beggar chance at handHis life is on his lip

Three score a thousand timesWhere once in AmazonWhere Eldorado holds the keyNo keeper holds my hand

Unchain the gate of solitudeThe ruler says you runRun hard unto the scaffold highYour chance to jump the gun

Oh how high the scaffold growsThe plant life of your widowIn black lace curtains brought you nearFrom out the plate glass window

The Minotaur with bloody handsIs enraged by the sunCaged he by the corpsesBrought forth by the dawn

In Orient is as I toldThe buckshee hangman swearsFor open crypts to silenceNylon knots to sway by prayer

In Orient where wise I wasTo please the way I liveCome give the beggar chance at handHis life is on his lip
