Elton John - Wreck Of The Hesperus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm not the wreck of the Hesperus
Feel more like the Wall of China
Getting old as Methuselah
Feel tall as the Eiffel Tower

[Verse 2]
I'm not a power of attorney
But I can rock as good as Gibraltar
Ain't no more no spring chicken
Been plucked but I'm still kicking
(But it's alright, it's alright)

[Bridge 1]
Poison penmen sneak, have no nerve to speak
Make up lies then they leak them out
Behind a pseudonym, the rottenness in them
Reaching out trying to touch me

[Verse 3]
Met some Oscars and Tonys
I slipped on a pavement oyster
Met a snake climbing ladders
Got out of the line of fire
(But it's alright)
[Bridge 2]
Brainless writers gossip nonsenses
To others heads as dense as they is
It's the same old malady
What they see is faulty

[Verse 4]
I'm not the wreck of the Hesperus
Feel more like Big Bill Broonzy
Getting old as my mother
But I tell you I got some company
(But it's alright)

[Outro]
But it's alright, it's alright
But it's alright, it's alright
It's alright, alright, it's alright
