Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album madman across the water<br><br>If it came to pass that they should ask<br>What could I tell them<br>Would they criticize behind my back<br>Maybe I should let them<br>Oh if only then and only then<br>They would understand<br>They'd turn a full-blooded city boy<br>Into a full-blooded city man<br><br>If they could face it<br>I could take it in their eyes<br>Oh I know I'd make it<br>Their tiny minds<br>And sacred cows just fake it<br>If only then and only then<br>They would understand<br>They'd turn a full-blooded city boy<br>Into a full-blooded city man<br><br>But I know the way they want me<br>In the way they publicize<br>If they could turn their focus off<br>To the image in their eyes<br>Maybe it would help them, help them understand<br>Maybe it would help them, help them understand<br>Maybe it would help them, help them understand<br>That a full-blooded city boy<br>Is now a full-blooded city man<br><br>Oh my soul<br>Oh my soul<br>Oh my soul
