It's English words, sorted to mean nothing...
“Solar Prestige A Gammon” is a song about absolutely nothing. The song was inspired by the Beatles' “Sun King.”
Both Bernie Taupin and Elton John said that they were so exhausted by people trying to find deep meanings in their songs when they had not intended any real meaning at all (the biggest example is “Take Me To The Pilot,” which both have said means nothing, but it is a song which people ascribe deep meaning to).
In response, Taupin strung together words that sounded good together but clearly had no meaning.
