Big Dipper

Music by Elton John . lyrics by Gary Osborne
Album A Single Man 1978

Now I saw you talking to a cute little slip of a sailor
And it looked at first like the whole thing would end as a failure
He had a thing about a quarter to four
And he just couldn't handle anymore
He's got his own big dipper
So he won't be needing your
Big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
So he won't be needing yours

So you filled him up with all kinds of stuff to relax him
And you took him down to the fairground after some action
And by around about a quarter to six
You found a different way to get your kicks
Up on the real big dipper
Where you tried a few new tricks
Big dipper
Up on a great big dipper
Did you learn a few new licks

He hadn't been to keen at the start
Now he seems to have a change of heart
He's got his own big dipper

Only now he's not sure, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
But there's always room for more

Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing
Big dipper
Big dipper

And at around about a quarter to ten
You got up and did it all again
He's got his own big dipper
And he knows just what it's for, big dipper
He's got his own big dipper
But he's got his eyes on yours

Everybody's got a song to sing
Everybody's got to do their thing
Big dipper
Big dipper

*another ride
Another tune
Another crazy afternoon
Another reason
For squeeing your big dipper
