Music by elton john Lyrics by bernie taupin Released as a uk b-side in 1986 Well he looks through the wreckage But he can't find a photo of you Then he ties me in knots With riddles he chooses to use And he says how come you two Are the only ones here who survived Oh I thought it was me Who was destined to be The lord of the flies And who rules when fools leave, I do Says the lord of the flies Leave me your world, give me your earth Swallow your foolish pride And don't think I'm wrong, it's here I belong It's mine, I'm the lord of the flies Lord of the flies Lord of the flies Then take all the money you want It's the last thing we used for fuel Here in the late great capital We burned a bonfire for you He knows we burned the harvest And saw through his disguise He's no phantom at all He's the only thing left The lord of the flies
