Elton John - Spiteful Child lyrics
[Elton John - Spiteful Child lyrics]
I got the hurt on the run
I just cut out the poison that
Was in me so long
Watching you tear out my heart only
Gave me the last laugh
Watching you tear out your hair is
Gonna be the best part
Oh, I've been shaken down by a spiteful child
I've slapped a worried frown
On that evil smile
I've been taken down by a spiteful child
I've turned the tables round and
It drives you wild oh you spiteful child
You'd better be ready to run
Now I've got you under the gun
I put my money on vengeance
Before this race had begun
Breaking the spirit in me only
Added to your conceit
Playing you at your own game is
Going to make it complete
Oh, I've been shaken down by a spiteful child
Turn the tables round and it drives you wild
Oh you spiteful child
I don't want to worry you none but
I got the hurt on the run
I just cut out the poison that
Was in me so long
Watching you tear out my heart only
Gave me the last laugh
Watching you tear out your hair is
Gonna be the best part
Oh, I've been shaken down by a spiteful child
I've slapped a worried frown
On that evil smile
I've been taken down by a spiteful child
I've turned the tables round and
It drives you wild oh you spiteful child
Spiteful
