Music by Elton John

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin



I'm getting bored

Being part of mankind

There's not a lot to do no more

This race is a waste of time



People rushing everywhere

Swarming around like flies

Think I'll buy a forty four

Give them all a surprise



Think I'm gonna kill myself

Cause a little suicide

Stick around for a couple of days

What a scandal if I died



Yeah I'm gonna kill myself

Get a little headline news

I'd like to see what the papers say

On the state of teenage blues



A rift in my family

I can't use the car

I gotta be in by ten o'clock

Who do they think they are



I'd make an exception

If you want to save my life

Brigitte Bardot gotta come

And see me every night
