The Fox

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album the fox





Being wiry and thinking loudly

About the things sent to make you move

You can't help it, there's no one in the world

Knows you just, just the way you do

So we keep darting through the holes

As the hunter and the fox

Run the gauntlet's savage road



Winter's heavy and partly cloudy

And the snowfall leaves the tracks that catch a few

Bit if you're wiley, you will leave them lying

Snared up in the traps that they set for you

And it's an evergreen affair

As temptation taunts the fox

Into the hunter's waiting lair





And for mile after mile you'll never see me tire

You'll never see me slow down, for a while

`cause i am the fox, like it or not

I'm always gonna be there running over the rock

Yes i am the fox, a fascinating cross

Of sharp as a whip and tough as an ox

Yes i am the fox





It may sound crazy but it's often lonely

And the restless heart should be captured once in a while

Then you can use them, and you often fool them

Into believing whatever you desire

So i'll keep moving through the night

The hunter and the hunted

On their designated flights
