Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Released as a uk b-side in may, 1974<br><br>Ooh she said the croud just loved you<br>My name's angel and I'm sixteen<br>I really love your band and your funny accent<br>Sure would like a cruise in your limousine<br><br>Then she said how about a rubdown<br>You're so cute, I'm so mean<br>The way you hold your guitar really gets me<br>I can show you tricks that you ain't never seen<br><br>Sick city, nobody to love you<br>Oh but sometimes I can taste you when I'm feeling weak<br>Sick city, isn't it a pity<br>That you can't float above it when the bottom leaks<br>Oh, sick city<br><br>Hey man how's about a handout<br>All you dudes just loaded down<br>Just a little sugar man makes me sweeter<br>I like to sit at home and watch the world go round<br><br>Stage-door monkey's on my back<br>Begging me to save his life<br>Can't he understand we're not a healing show<br>We're just here to play some music for the kids tonight
