Elton John - Meal Ticket lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album captain fantastic and the brown dirt cowboy<br><br>I can hound you if I need to<br>Sip your brandy from a crystal shoe<br>In the corner, in the corner<br>While the others climb reaching dizzy heights<br>The world's in front of me in black and white<br>I'm on the bottom line, I'm on the bottom line<br><br>I'd have a cardiac if I had such luck<br>Lucky losers, lucky losers landing on skid row<br>Landing on skid row<br>While the diamond jims<br>And the kings road pimps<br>Breath heavy in their brand new clothes<br>I'm on the bottom line, I'm on the bottom line<br><br>And I gotta get a meal ticket<br>To survive you need a meal ticket<br>To stay alive you need a meal ticket<br>Feel no pain, no pain<br>No regret, no regret<br>When the line's been signed<br>You're someone else<br>Do yourself a favor, the meal ticket does the rest<br><br>Shake a hand if you have to<br>Trust in us and we will love you anyway, anyway<br>Don't leave us stranded in the jungle<br>With fifty percent that's hard to handle<br>Ain't that so, ain't that so
