Elton John - Bitter Fingers Lyrics

I`m Going On The Circuit, I`m Doing All The Clubs
and I Really Need A Song Boys To Stir Those Workers Up
and Get Their Wives To Sing It With Me Just Like In The Pubs
when I Worked The Good Old Pubs In Stepney

oh Could You Knock A Line Or Two Together For A Friend
sentimental Tear Inducing With A Happy End
and We Need A Tune To Open Our Season At Southend
can You Help Us

it`s Hard To Write A Song With Bitter Fingers
so Much To Prove, So Few To Tell You Why
those Old Die-hards In Denmark Street Start Laughing
at The Keyboard Player`s Hollow Haunted Eyes
it Seems To Me A Change Is Really Needed
i`m Sick Of Tra-la-las And La-de-das
no More Long Days Hacking Hunks Of Garbage
bitter Fingers Never Swung On Swinging Stars, Swinging Stars

i Like The Warm Blue Flame, The Hazy Heat It Brings
it Loosens Up The Muscles And Forces You To Sing
you Know It`s Just Another Hit And Run From The Tin Pan Alley Twins

and There`s A Chance That One Day You Might Write A Standard Lads
so Churn Them Out Quick And Fast And We`ll Still Pat Your Backs
`cause We Need What We Can Get To Launch Another Dozen Acts
are You Working
