Music by Elton JohnLyrics by Bernie TaupinAvailable on the album Rock Of The WestiesThey must have had the whole thing plannedThere must have been a hundredIf we make a standI think we'll be outnumberedIf I'd had the chanceThen I could understandWhy I'm a juvenile delinquentIn an East End gangAnd if you think you've seen gasoline burning in my eyesDon't be alarmed, tell yourself it's good to be, it's good to be aliveIt's just another street kid on your tailRunning on the wrong side of the railsWith my boot lace tie and my hand-me-downsYou know I run the toughest bunch this side of townThose street kids making news just being aroundI've been bottled and been brainedSquealers can't be trustedIf we fight tonightYou can bet we'll all be bustedI'd like to break awayFrom the rut I'm inBut beggars can't be choosersAnd I was born to sinLet's hear it for the street kidsMaking news just being around
