Lyrics by bernie taupin
Released as a uk b-side in may, 1974
Ooh she said the croud just loved you
My names angel and Im sixteen
I really love your band and your funny accent
Sure would like a cruise in your limousine
Then she said how about a rubdown
Youre so cute, Im so mean
The way you hold your guitar really gets me
I can show you tricks that you aint never seen
Sick city, nobody to love you
Oh but sometimes I can taste you when Im feeling weak
Sick city, isnt it a pity
That you cant float above it when the bottom leaks
Oh, sick city
Hey man hows about a handout
All you dudes just loaded down
Just a little sugar man makes me sweeter
I like to sit at home and watch the world go round
Stage-door monkeys on my back
Begging me to save his life
Cant he understand were not a healing show
Were just here to play some music for the kids tonight
