Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album madman across the water<br><br>I can see very well<br>There's a boat on the reef with a broken back<br>And I can see it very well<br>There's a joke and I know it very well<br>It's one of those that I told you long ago<br>Take my word I'm a madman don't you know<br><br>Once a fool had a good part in the play<br>If it's so would I still be here today<br>It's quite peculiar in a funny sort of way<br>They think it's very funny everything I say<br>Get a load of him, he's so insane<br>You better get your coat dear<br>It looks like rain<br><br>We'll come again next thursday afternoon<br>The in-laws hope they'll see you very soon<br>But is it in your conscience that you're after<br>Another glimpse of the madman across the water<br><br>I can see very well<br>There's a boat on the reef with a broken back<br>And I can see it very well<br>There's a joke and I know it very well<br>It's one of those that I told you long ago<br>Take my word I'm a madman don't you know<br><br>The ground's a long way down but I need more<br>Is the nightmare black<br>Or are the windows painted<br>Will they come again next week<br>Can my mind really take it
