Bad Side Of The Moon Lyrics

Elton John

Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Released as a uk b-side in march, 1970
It seems as though Ive lived my life
On the bad side of the moon
To stir your dregs in sickness still
Without the rustic spoon
Common people live with me
Where the light has never shone
And the hermits flock like hummingbirds
To speak in a foreign tongue
Im a light world away
From the people who make me stay
Sitting on the bad side of the moon
There aint no need for watchdogs here
To justify our ways
We live our life in manacles
The main cause of our stay
Exiled here from other worlds
My sentence comes too soon
Why should I be made to pay
On the bad side of the moon
