Better off Dead

Elton John
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
There was a face on a hoarding
2
That someone had drawn on
3
And just enough time for the night
4
To pass by without warning
5
Away in the distance there's a blue flashing light
6
Someone's in trouble somewhere tonight
7
As the flickering neon stands ready to fuse
8
The wind blows away all of yesterday's news
9
Well they've locked up their daughters
10
And they battened the hatches
11
They always could find us
12
But they never could catch us
13
Through the grease streaked windows of an all night cafe
14
We watched the arrested get taken away
15
And that cigarette haze has ecology beat
16
As the whores and the drunks filed in from the street
17
'Cause the steams in the boiler the coals in the fire
18
If you ask how I am then I'll just say inspired
19
If the thorn of a rose is the thorn in your side
20
Then you're better off dead if you haven't yet died
21
'Cause the steams in the boiler the coals in the fire
22
If you ask how I am then I'll just say inspired
23
If the thorn of a rose is the thorn in your side
24
Then you're better off dead if you haven't yet died
25
Better off dead
26
Better off dead
27
Better off dead
