Just Like Noah's Ark

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

Available on the album The Captain And The Kid

It's just like Noah's ark

There's two of every kind

Pretty girls and boys in drag

Walking a fine thin line

Shaking hands and bussing cheeks

Llicking their lips like they could eat

Me alive in a couple of weeks

Yeah, just like Noah's ark

Italiano promotion men

Chomping a big cigar

Slapping backs and making cracks

About the fags in the bar

Radio boss dipping his nose in a little white packet

You can put it out son and we'll all back it

Yea it's just like Noah's ark

chorus:

And the waves are crashing around us

But we're ready for the flood

And we don't need a sign like an olive branch

In the beak of a snow white dove

We're not as dumb as we might look

You can't keep us in the dark

With me and you it's two by two

Just like Noah's ark

These four walls have seen

The Cockettes and the Casters

From San Francisco to Ohio

I've seen beauty and disaster

Cocky young roosters and little chicks

Flashing smiles, shaking them hips

Trying to hook it up for the late night shift

Here in Noah's ark

chorus:

And the waves are crashing around us

And we're ready for the flood

And we don't need a sign like an olive branch

In the beak of a snow white dove

We're not as dumb as we might look

Or locked up in the dark

We can sort out the snakes from the animals

Just like Noah's ark

And we wrote it as we saw it

From the centre of the stage

All access to the liars

Who claim they wrote a page

But for every tiny dancer

There's a dog that's had its day

The truth is never quite the same

As what the papers say

[repeat chorus]
