《Old Yellow Bricks》是英國搖滾樂隊Arctic Monkeys於2007年發行的專輯《Favorite Worst Nightmare》中的歌曲，由Alex Turner與Jon McClure共同作詞，樂隊成員作曲。
歌曲以緊湊的吉他編曲和敘事性歌詞延續樂隊後朋克風格。通過“霍迪尼”“黃磚路”等隱喻描繪逃離現實的意象，借《綠野仙蹤》典故中“多蘿西”的覺醒批判盲目逃避心理，在躁動節奏中交織對城市沉滯與自我認知的反思。

Old yellow bricks love's a risk
Quite the little escapologist
Love's some myth when you wish
For a thousand places better than this
You are the fugitive
But you don't know what you're running from
You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone
Houdini look
You don't know what you're running away from
He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up
Blinded by nostalgia
He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up
She was enraged by the way
That the emperors were trapped in the cage
And the days she'd deemed dull
The empty nights reading beer bottles
You're such a fugitive
But you don't know what you're running from
You can't kid us and you couldn't trick anyone
Houdini look
You don't know what you're running away from
He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up
Blinded by nostalgia
He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up
Yeah it's a loss just because
It wasn't all that you thought it was
You are the fugitive
But you don't know what you're running away from
She said I want to sleep in a city that never wakes up
And revel in nostalgia
I know I said
He wants to sleep in a city that never wakes up but
Dorothy was right though
