Street Kids — текст песни (Elton John)

They must have had the whole thing planned
There must have been a hundred
If we make a stand
I think we`ll be outnumbered
If I`d had the chance
Then I could understand
Why I`m a juvenile delinquent
In an East End gang

And if you think you`ve seen gasoline burning in my eyes
Don`t be alarmed, tell yourself it`s good to be, it`s good to be alive

It`s just another street kid on your tail
Running on the wrong side of the rails
With my boot lace tie and my hand-me-downs
You know I run the toughest bunch this side of town
Those street kids making news just being around

I`ve been bottled and been brained
Squealers can`t be trusted
If we fight tonight
You can bet we`ll all be busted
I`d like to break away
From the rut I`m in
But beggars can`t be choosers
And I was born to sin

Let`s hear it for the street kids
Making news just being around
