Written by：Elton John/Bernie Taupin

He was a light star
他曾是璀璨星辰
Tripping on a high wire
在钢丝上摇摇欲坠
Bulldog stubborn
倔强如斗牛犬
Born uneven
生来就不平凡
A classless creature
不拘一格的存在
A man for all seasons
四季皆宜的传奇
But don't bet them
但别轻易下注
They can't take him
没人能驯服他
To the very bottom
直至深渊之底
Because they made him
因他们塑造了他
And they'll waste him
也将他耗尽
And I don't believe
而我已不愿相信
That I want to watch them
不想再目睹这一切
'Cause the fifties shifted out of gear
因五十年代已脱节远去
He was an idol then
他曾是彼时的偶像
Now he's an idol here
如今却在此处封神
But his face has changed
但他的容颜已改变
He's not the same no more
他不再是从前的模样
And I have to say that
我不得不承认
I like the way his music sounded before
我更喜欢他过去的音乐
He was tight assed
他曾高高在上
Walking on broken glass
如履薄冰般行走
Highly prized in the wallet size
钱包里的照片曾是珍宝
The number one crush
万千少女心中的偶像
In a schoolgirl's eyes
曾是校园里的梦中情人
But don't pretend that it won't end
但别假装这一切不会终结
In the depth of your despair
在你最深的绝望之中
You went from lame suits
从蹩脚的西装
Right down
到如今
The tennis shoes
穿着网球鞋
To peanuts
沦落街头
From the lion's share
从万众瞩目的巅峰
All right
好吧
'Cause the fifties shifted out of gear
因五十年代已脱节远去
He was an idol then
他曾是彼时的偶像
Now he's an idol here
如今却在此处封神
But his face has changed
但他的容颜已改变
Oh he's not the same no more
啊 他再不复从前
And I have to say
我不得不承认
That
那个
I like the way his music sounded before
我更喜欢他过去的音乐
