Hercules

Lyricist: Bernie Taupin     Composer: Elton John

Ooh I got a busted wing and a hornet sting
Like an out of tune guitar

Ooh she got Hercules on her side
And Diana in her eyes

Some men like the Chinese life
Some men kneel and pray

Ooh well I like women and I like wine
And I've always liked it that way
Always liked it that way

I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving
kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules

Oh it hurts like hell to see my gal
Messing with a muscle boy

No superman gonna ruin my plans
Playing with my toys

Rich man sweating in a sauna bath
Poor boy scrubbing in a tub

Me, I stay gritty up to my ears
Washing in a bucket of mud
Washing in a bucket of mud

I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving
kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules

But I can't dig it, the way she tease
That old tough man routine up her sleeve
Living and loving
kissing and hugging
Living and loving with a cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
A cat named Hercules
