Elton John – Better Off Dead Lyrics  Share

From Elton John's album: Captain Fantastic And The Brown Dirt Cowboy

There was a face on a hoarding that someone had drawn on
And just enough time for the night to pass by without warning
Away in the distance there^,s a blue flashing light
Someone^,s in trouble somewhere tonight
As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse
The wind blows away all of yesterday^,s news

Well they^,ve locked up their daughters and they battened the hatches
They always could find us but they never could catch us
Through the grease streaked windows of an all night cafe
[ Better Off Dead lyrics from

We watched the arrested get taken away
And that cigarette haze has ecology beat
As the whores and the drunks filed in from the street

`Cause the steams in the boiler the coals in the fire
If you ask how I am then I^,ll just say inspired
If the thorn of a rose is the thorn in your side
Then you^,re better off dead if you haven^,t yet died
