Elton John in Concert 2013

# But the fever's gonna get you

# I get high in the evening

# It is the way that I move

# I entertain by picking brains

# Sell my soul by dropping names

# It is the way that I move

# It is the way that I move

# Ooh, oh, I'm talking about

# Hey, kids, shake it loose together

# The spotlight's hitting something

# Been known to change the weather

# We'll kill the fatted calf tonight

# You're gonna hear electric music

# But they're so spaced out

# Ba-ba-ba-Bennie and the Jets

# Oh they're so weird and wonderful

# Bennie, she's really keen

# But they're so spaced out

# Ba-ba-ba-Bennie and the Jets

# But they're weird and wonderful

# Bennie, she's really keen

CROWD MEMBER: We love you, Elton.

Em, we're going to be playing

This is a song that you think

# Handing tickets out for God

# The boulevard is not that bad

# Hold me closer, tiny dancer

# Lay me down in sheets of linen

# You've had a busy day today

# She was dancing in the sand

# Lying here with no-one near

# Hold me closer, tiny dancer

# Lay me down in sheets of linen

# You've had a busy day today

# Hold me closer, tiny dancer

# Lay me down in sheets of linen

# You had a busy day today. #

We're going to play a couple new songs from that right now.

It's the most piano driven record

We're going to start with a song

# I'm waiting for the fog around

# This spooky little town to clear

# I'd like to go back home again

# The world had seven wonders

# And all around me I've seen times

# If I could get back home again

# Trying to get back home again

# Could have been a jailbreak

# Or the spotlight hitting me

# In the old part of Valencia

Now as some of you probably know,

I write to lyrics from Bernie.

before I go into the studio.

He gives me a bunch of lyrics.

I go there and I sit at the piano

"Which one will I start with first?"

I started with on this album

because the title intrigued me

It's called Oscar Wilde Gets Out.

# Freedom for the scapegoat

# Shaking fists and razors gleamed

# Your keen wit was sharp enough

# To tear through every page

# The bitter pill you swallowed

# Knowing how love fools us all

# A golden boy in velveteen

# The past was so seductive

# That they paid to hear you talk

# Baccarat and champagne flutes

# Long before the lords and law

# Granted Oscar Wilde a sinner

# There's a white gull screaming

# You never know who's listening

# Looking back at the hard life

# I should have stayed on the farm

# I didn't sign up with you

# This boy's to young to be singing

# So goodbye, yellow brick road

# Where the dogs of society howl

# I'm going back to my plough

# And hunting that horny-back toad

# What do you think you'll do then?

# To set you on your feet again

# Maybe you'll get a replacement

# There's plenty like me to be found

# Mongrels who ain't got a penny

# Sniffing for titbits like you

# Goodbye, yellow brick road

# Where the dogs of society howl

# I'm going back to my plough

# Hunting that horny-back toad

Got to follow the road, baby.

# On such a timeless flight

# And I think it's going to be

# Burning out his fuse up here alone

# And I think it's going to be

# Burning out his fuse up here alone

# Mars ain't the kind of place

# In fact, it's cold as hell

# It's just my job five days a week

# Burning out his fuse up here alone

# Levon wears his war wound

# Levon, Levon likes his money

# He was born a pauper to a pawn

# Alvin Tostig had a son today

# And he shall be a good man

# Levon sells cartoon balloons

# His family business thrives

# Jesus blows up balloons all day

# Jesus, he wants to go to Venus

# Take a balloon and go sailing

# He was born a pauper to a pawn

# Alvin Tostig has a son today

# And he shall be a good man

# In tradition with the family plan

# Yeah, and he shall be a good man

# And he shall be a good man

# In tradition with the family plan

# And he shall be a good man

This is Elton John. We're having a great time. I'm still standing.

# There's a cold lonely light

# You'll wind up like a wreck

# And did you think this fool

# You know, I'm still standing

# Feeling like a little kid

# Once I never could hope to win

# Were meant to cut me down

# If your love was just a circus

# You know, I'm still standing

# Looking like a true survivor

# Feeling like a little kid

# Picking up the pieces of my life

# Looking like a true survivor

# Feeling like a little kid

# Picking up the pieces of my life

# Seven o'clock and I want to rock

# Wanna get a belly full of beer

# My old lady, she don't care

# A handful of grease in her hair

# Had it with your discipline

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

pretty tight in here tonight

# I may use a little muscle

# I may sink a little drink

# Are the sounds of a switchblade

# Had it with your discipline

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

# Saturday night's all right

# Had it with your discipline

# You know Saturday night's

# You get a little action in

# Gonna set this dance alight

# Saturday night's the night I like

# Saturday night's all right

# Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

# Saturday night's all right

# Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

# Saturday night's all right

# Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

# Saturday, Saturday, Saturday

# I'm not one of those who can

# I'd buy a big house where

# But it's the best I can do

# And you can tell everybody

# It may be quite simple but

# While you're in the world

# Well, a few of the verses

# But the sun's been quite kind

# It's for people like you that

# If they're green or they're blue

# And you can tell everybody

# It may be quite simple but

# While you're in the world. #
