The Emperor's New Cloth Lyrics - Elton John

We bet on our lives and we bet on the horses 

In that upstairs apartment 

On Orlando and 4th 

And the rent was due and the rent man was knocking 

Like a Chinese proverb 

We were always searching 

 

Nightlife's a no win but nobody noticed 

How we killed off the bottles 

Looking good on the surface 

The dog days barked and the house cat got old 

We were Bonnie and Clyde 

In the emperor's new clothes

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

And the tears never came 

They just stayed in our eyes 

We refused to admit that we wore this disguise 

Every inch of us growing 

Like Pinocchio's nose 

As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes 

 

We flew by our wits and by the seat of our pants 

In the state of illusion 

In the nation of chance 

And the repo was hauling the wreck we'd been driving 

As the dashboard Madonna 

Smiled back at us kindly 

 

We cheated the system never batting an eyelid 

Seeing only the good 

Through the holes in our shoes 

And our halos were rusty but we wore them proudly 

We were two little gods 

In the emperor's new clothes 

 

And the tears never came 

They just stayed in our eyes 

We refused to admit that we wore this disguise 

Every inch of us growing 

Like Pinocchio's nose 

As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes 

 

solo 

 

We were Bonnie and Clyde 

In the emperor's new clothes 

 

And the tears never came 

They just stayed in our eyes 

We refused to admit that we wore this disguise 

Every inch of us growing 

Like Pinocchio's nose 

As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes 

Emperor's new clothes 

Emperor's new clothes
