.....lantern or tubert for quee

Yes, it sounds like nonsense, which technically it is.....but it was also lines to an old Elton John song. I can't seem to google it (could just be me). I think it was from around the time of "Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboys"....anyone have the name of the song? Please? I'd love to get the correct lyrics.

Answer 1

The name of the song is Solar Prestige A Gammon".
It's from the album called "Caribou". This is the explanation from the album notes. Elton said "We have so many people dissecting our songs in so many ways thinking that we're anti-religious, anti-semitic and all this rubbish! So when we got to Caribou, we were so fed up with it that I said 'Bernie, go write any old meaningless rubbish'. So he wrote 'Solar Prestige A Gammon', but little did I know, the swine, five fishes were mentioned in it, so the we had all these other religious maniacs saying 'But there are five fishes'. So, this song was a retaliation to all these silly people who "thought rock and roll was evil". Elton thought -if they accuse us of nonsense, lets really give them some nonsense! That's the story behind the song. Here's the lyrics:
Oh ma cameo molesting
Kee pa a poorer for tee
Solar prestige a gammon
Lantern or turbert paw kwee
Solar prestige a gammon
Kool kar kyrie kay salmon
Hair ring molassis abounding
Common lap kitch sardin a poor floundin
Cod ee say oo pay a loto
My zeta prestige toupay a floored
Ray indee pako a gammon
Solar prestige a pako can nord.
