Band Name Origins:
- Reginald Dwight did indeed pick the names of two of his former bandmembers - singer Elton Dean and sax-player 'Long' John Baldrie.

"Candle In The Wind"
Better Lyrics:
It seems to me that you lived your life
With a load of taco wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the beans kicked in
And I would have liked to help you
But I couldn’t take the smell
I hope you go to Heaven
Cause you’ll sure blow up in Hell!
With a load of taco wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the beans kicked in
And I would have liked to help you
But I couldn’t take the smell
I hope you go to Heaven
Cause you’ll sure blow up in Hell!
Original Lyrics:
And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Insincere Song Lyrics:
"Philadelphia Freedom"
The Insincere Lyrics: Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia Freedom
From the day that I was born I've waved the flag Why They're Insincere: It's a well-known fact that Elton John was born in England. This song suggests that he was born in Philadelphia! Elton's such a liar!
[Ed's comment: I suggest Mr Dwight was talking about a subject other than his nationality...] Submitted by: Aaerni
| "This Song Has No Title"
The Insincere Lyrics: Oh this song's got no title

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Your Song"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: I don't have much money
But boy if I did I'd buy a big house where We both could live Why They're Misrhymed: Everyone knows that 'did' does not rhyme with 'live'. This is what makes this part of the song different from all the other parts. In all the other parts of the song, the words rhyme, as in 'inside, hide' 'no, show' 'do, you', 'moss, cross', 'do, blue', and 'mean, seen', if you know what I mean if you've heard this song.
Submitted by: Aaerni
| "Can You Feel The Love Tonight? (lion King Version)"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: The sweet caress of twilight
There's magic in the air And with all this romantic atmosphere Disaster's in the air Why They're Misrhymed: One: No word (or phrase, for that matter) rhymes with itself. Two: Given that, how the heck do you rhyme 'magic' and 'disaster's'?

Insulting Song Lyrics:
""Saint""
The Insulting Lyrics: "You cook much better on a lower flame, you burn much better when the sun goes down", "No one's gonna stare you down", etc.
Why They're Insulting: Sorry but I don't like the lyrics from "Saint" (from the too low for zero album). I'm not a biggot or anything else but I can't help thinking this song has particularly hurting lyrics towards the christians. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it was humourous (a very sly humout towards hypocritical persons in general or "too-good" lovers )but.... anyway, humorous or not, I think it's a very, very ambiguous song that makes me really embarrased, uncomfortable...
Submitted by: Carlos
| "Dirty Little Girl"
The Insulting Lyrics: I've seen a lot of women who haven't had much luck
I've seen you looking like you've been run down by a truck That ain't nice to say sometimes I guess I'm really hard But I'm gonna put buckshots in your pants if you step into my yard Why They're Insulting: Wow. It seems he's saying "yes, I know it's completely mean & unfair, but I have no compassion for you. You look like hell; get away from me!"

Inappropriate Song Lyrics:
"Rocket Man"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: I'm going to be, as high as, a kite!
Why They're Inappropriate: He's telling us, he is going, to be, abusing substance's!, most inappropriate!, don't you, think so?
Submitted by: Art E.
| "Can You Feel The Love Tonight"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: There's a time for everyone, if they only learn
that the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn. there's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors when the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours. Why They're Inappropriate: One has to wonder if the author of these lyrics knows the meaning of the term "star-crossed". the way the term is invoked here makes the last two lines above go entirely contrary to the overall upbeat and optimistic tone of this song. for "star-crossed" means doomed or ill-fated, the term being rooted (at least symbolically) in a view that fates are determined in the stars. so a star-crossed voyager is not a voyager one would want one's heart beating in time with. that would be a major bad omen, to find one's heart beating in time with that of anyone who was star-crossed. that would turn that "rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors" into a dark and foreboding rhyme and reason in nature, suggesting a premonition that one is doomed to failure, a fate entirely contrary to the overall message of the song. in fact, the first two lines above clearly seem to imply that no one is really "star-crossed".

Dirty Song Lyrics:
"Philadelphia Freedom"
The Dirty Lyrics: Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Why They're Dirty: Elton probably meant this line to refer to growing up in a free society. But 'knee-high to a man' sounds like he's on his knees providing oral gratification to the man.
Submitted by: John
| "I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues"
The Dirty Lyrics: Time on my hands, could be time spent with you...
Why They're Dirty: The innocent figure-of-speech 'time on my hands' followed by 'could be time spent with you' first sounds like Elton is singing about how he's spending time away from the one he loves ... then on closer examination, it can also be heard as Elton hinting at exactly WHAT he's doing with his hands while he's thinking about the one he loves ...
