Elton John - Hey Armadillo (The Road To El Dorado Soundtrack)
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice
From the soundtrack "The Road To El Dorado"
Hey armadillo what you doing in the garden
Slumbering and spherical, you're always hanging around
Leather on the outside but a delicate interior
Very like a lot of human beings I have found
Hey armadillo I can't tell which way you're facing
Maybe that's a good thing, maybe you don't even know
No one's gonna bother you if they can't find your front end
There again I guess you find your love life rather slow
In the armadillo circle
In that armour-plated set
The philosophy is simple
What you see ain't what you get
In the armadillo culture
In that well-protected creed
A solid hide to hide in
Is the only thing you need
Hey armadillo
Hey armadillo what you doing in the desert
Is a life of burrowing the answer to it all
What I would give to leave my problems six feet underground
And always be the perfect shape to be, and have, a ball
In the armadillo circle
In that armour-plated set
The philosophy is simple
What you see ain't what you get
In the armadillo culture
In that well-protected creed
A solid hide to hide in
Is the only thing you need
Hey armadillo
Hey armadillo
Hey Armadillo-Elton John (03:48)
Great song, an outtake from 2000's The Road to El Dorado Official Soundtrack. -Sorry all- was

First of all, it's thieves. And the proper term would be a "hack", if such were the case. But it's not that performers use ghost writers so much as ghost writers seek out the performer they feel best represents their work!!!! You clearly have no grasp on reality or the industry. Just like an actor can be typecast by a director or creator, a performer can be typecast by a ghost writer. Based on your logic, all actors who don't write their own characters are thieves? Use a little insight.

i tend to have more respect for musicians who write their own songs. to me it makes the song that much more real

Just want to thank the Colbert Report for introducing me to Elvis Costello with this song.
