Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album rare masters<br><br>Oh jessie I'd like to be<br>One of those men upon the screen<br>With an elegant lady and a cafe in paris<br>Serving pernot and kalua with cream<br><br>You can see it I know<br>All the doors have been closed in my face<br>And the drinks at the casbah<br>Run a mile or more from this place<br><br>And oh jessie won't you look at the planes<br>Tell me, oh jessie, is it true what they<br>That there's a capital g in the name of the game<br>And the runway's a home for my silver-red plane<br><br>And won't you look at the planes<br>Riding down the skyway<br>Jessie ain't those wings just fine<br>Don't it make you want to fly someday<br><br>Why friend am I so still<br>Tied to my job with time to kill<br>Do I still bear the traces of old don quixote<br>Tilting giants on imaginary hills
