Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album elton john<br><br>Have you ever lived in a cage<br>Where you live to be whipped and be tamed<br>For I've never loved in a cage<br>Or talked to a friend or just waved<br><br>Well I walk while they talk about virtue<br>Just raised on my back legs and snarled<br>Watched you kiss your old daddy with passion<br>And tell dirty jokes as he died<br><br>But I'm damned when I really care there<br>For the cellar's the room in your lives<br>Where you lace yourself with bad whiskey<br>And close the cage doors on your life<br><br>Well I pray while you bathe in bad water<br>Sing songs that I learnt as a boy<br>Then breaks all the bones in my body<br>On the bars you can never destroy
