Elton John – Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Lyrics 11 years ago
he is saying he is not a dog, you will not put me where you want me too, you can't control me.

but upon looking up what a penthouse means, my interpretation of this song may be way off

Elton John – Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Lyrics 11 years ago
I always thought it was about a job with a lousy boss, and this is him saying im done with this, im not dealing with how your treating me,
"You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you"
"So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough"

he is saying saying i am leaving i am going back to what I was doing before.

here he is saying, "i am replacable"
"Maybe you'll get a replacement
There's plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain't got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground"

he is pretty much saying to the boss he may find someone who is desperate for a job. and that anyone of decency would not even bother. its how bad it is.



again thi sis just my interpretation, it may be completely off, but thats how i see this song.

August Burns Red – Back Burner Lyrics 16 years ago
i believe this song is referring to living the americans dream, having it all, but how having it all will always leave you empty inside. when you are searching for wordly things for happiness you will always have a empty place inside you which will never be fufilled! until you give those things up for God
