You're kidding me. No comments. Nobody knows what this song is about? Awww come on folks, its easy peasy puddin' pie, kissed the girls and made 'em cry. When the teacher asked him why. He said "Because I felt like it, piss off!"
It's obvious who the Flintstone Boy is. Think about it (if you're Canadian, think aboot it). Who was Fred Flintstone's boy? Barney Rubble! The Flintstone boy is Barney Rubble. What happened is this: Elton wanted to write a song called, "Don't Worry About Barney Rubble, He's Good", but Mr. Rubble declined to allow his name to be published without adequate compensation. Elton John, being the generous soul he is, offered to pay Rubble 10% of his share of the record sales, which would have been much more than expected. Rubble took it to his attorney. The lawyer, extremely upset that Elton wanted to pay Rubble with useless rectanglular pieces of paper instead of stone currency, like igneous pebbles, advised Rubble to decline. Dismayed, Elton approached Fred Flintstone and made an offer of an enormous rack of ribs. Flintstone, hungry af, accepted. Elton payed the fee, but Mr. Flintstone never got to eat it because the rack of ribs tipped over his car, it rolled over and crushed Flintstone, his family, and their beloved dogosaur, Dino, to death. Sad story indeed! Soon after Elton John released his biggest hit up to that time, Funeral For a Flintstone. The song hit #1 on Rolling Boulder magazine's hot 100 slate until the end of the cretateous period.
