Elton John - Meal Ticket (Gotta Get a) lyrics
[Elton John - Meal Ticket Gotta Get a lyrics]
Sip your brandy from a crystal shoe
In the corner in the corner
While the others climb reaching dizzy heights
The world's in front of me in black and white
I'm on the bottom line
I'm on the bottom line
I'd have a cardiac if I had such luck
Ooh! Lucky losers
Lucky losers landing on skid row
Landing on skid row
While the Diamond Jims and
The Kings road pimps
Breathe heavy in their brand new clothes
I'm on the bottom line
I'm on the bottom line
And I gotta get a meal ticket
To survive, you need a meal ticket
To stay alive, you need a meal ticket
Feel no pain, no pain, no regret, no regret
When the line's been signed
You're someone else do yourself a favor
The meal ticket does the rest
Shake a hand if you have to
Trust in us and we will love you anyway
Anyway don't leave us stranded in the jungle
With fifty percent that's hard to handle
Ain't that so? Ain't that so?
And I gotta get a meal ticket
To survive, you need a meal ticket
To stay alive, you need a meal ticket
Feel no pain, no pain no regret, no regret
When the line's been signed
You're someone else do yourself a favor
The meal ticket does the rest meal ticket
(Gotta get a meal ticket)
And I gotta get a meal ticket
To survive, you need a meal ticket
To stay alive, you need a meal ticket
Feel no pain, no pain no regret, no regret
When the line's been signed
You're someone else do yourself a favor
The meal ticket does the rest
Meal ticket meal ticket
Meal ticket meal ticket
Meal ticket
