Bitter Fingers - Elton John (艾尔顿·约翰)[00:00:00]
I'm going on the circuit [00:00:15]
I'm doing all the clubs[00:00:18]
And I really need a song boys[00:00:22]
To stir those workers up[00:00:25]
And get their wives to sing it[00:00:29]
With me just like in the pubs[00:00:31]
When I worked the good old pubs in Stepney[00:00:37]
Oh could you knock a line[00:00:44]
Or two together for a friend[00:00:46]
Sentimental tear inducing with a happy end[00:00:52]
And we need a tune[00:01:00]
To open our season at Southend[00:01:01]
Can you help us[00:01:07]
It's hard to write a song with bitter fingers[00:01:12]
So much to prove so few to tell you why[00:01:18]
Those old die-hards[00:01:21]
In Denmark Street start laughing[00:01:22]
At the keyboard player's hollow haunted eyes[00:01:24]
It seems to me a change is really needed[00:01:28]
I'm sick of tra-la-las and la-de-das[00:01:32]
No more long days hacking hunks of garbage[00:01:36]
Bitter fingers never swung on swinging stars [00:01:39]
Swinging stars[00:01:42]
I like the warm blue flame [00:01:59]
The hazy heat it brings[00:02:03]
It loosens up the muscles[00:02:06]
And forces you to sing[00:02:09]
You know it's just another hit and run[00:02:13]
From the tin pan alley twins[00:02:16]
And there's a chance[00:02:21]
That one day you might write a standard lads[00:02:21]
So churn them out quick and fast[00:02:27]
And we'll still pat your backs[00:02:31]
`Cause we need what we can get to launch[00:02:35]
Another dozen acts[00:02:39]
Are you working[00:02:42]
It's hard to write a song with bitter fingers[00:02:49]
So much to prove so few to tell you why[00:02:53]
Those old die-hards[00:02:56]
In Denmark Street start laughing[00:02:58]
At the keyboard player's hollow haunted eyes[00:03:00]
It seems to me a change is really needed[00:03:03]
I'm sick of tra-la-las and la-de-das[00:03:07]
No more long days hacking hunks of garbage[00:03:11]
Bitter fingers never swung on swinging stars [00:03:14]
Swinging stars[00:03:17]
It's hard to write a song with bitter fingers[00:03:20]
So much to prove so few to tell you why[00:03:23]
Those old die-hards[00:03:27]
In Denmark Street start laughing[00:03:28]
At the keyboard player's hollow haunted eyes[00:03:30]
It seems to me a change is really needed[00:03:34]
I'm sick of tra-la-las and la-de-das[00:03:37]
No more long days hacking hunks of garbage[00:03:41]
Bitter fingers never swung on swinging stars [00:03:44]
Swinging stars[00:03:48]
