Elton John - Ego lyrics

Elton John

Take a look at me now

And take a taste of the money

I'm not in it for the bread

I'm in it for the gravy honey

Step on the thin ice lightly

And check out the show twice nightly

Oh cause I'm, I'm on the stage tonight

And if the price is right

I'll, I will amaze before the light

I crave the light mmm blinding white

I need the light tonight

Take a look at me now

And take a look at my billing

I'm not in it as an extra

I'm in it for the killing

Inflate my ego gently

Tell them heaven sent me

Oh 'cause I'm, I'm so expressive

And I'm so obsessed

With my ego, my ego

And it's message oo inform the press

Invite the guests I need the press tonight

Do you remember acting out your youth

A romeo resplendent on an orange case

Do you remember how I would recite

And how I'd blow my lines

And hide my face

Well maybe it was childish, foolish

Before schoolish, immaturish, lose your coolish

Well I had to grow and prove my ego

Take a look at me now

And take a taste of the money

I'm not in it for the bread

I'm in it for the gravy honey

Inflate my ego gently

Go tell them heaven sent me

Oh cause I'm, I'm so expressive

And I'm so obsessed

With my ego, my ego

And it's message oo inform the press

invite the guests I need the press tonight

Do you remember how I would recite

And how I'd blow my lines

And hide my face

Well maybe it was childish, foolish

Before schoolish, immaturish, lose your coolish

Well I had to grow and prove my ego
