1. _ Dear God
Music by elton john
Lyrics by gary osborne
Available on the album 21 at 33
Dear god, are you there
Can you hear me, do you care
Dear god, here are we
Less than perfect, far from free
Oh we take what we get and we don't take no more
But we sometimes forget what it was you created us for
Dear god, now's the time
If you're listening, show some sign
Dear god, hear me plead
Don't desert us in our need
Dear god, lend a hand
Is this really what you planned
Dear god, in you we trust
Though we've failed you, don't fail us
Oh we take what we get but we can't take much more
Do you sometimes forget what it was you created us for, dear god
I hope and pray you'll lead us to a brighter day
Out of the darkness and light up our way, dear god
I hope and pray you'll lead us to a better way
Love is the answer so light up our way, dear god
Light up our way dear god, dear god
Love is the answer so light up our way, dear god

2. _ Two Rooms At The End Of The World
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album 21 at 33
Through a mutual agreement, we got that aching feeling
To look up one another one more time
Tracking down the zip codes
Sealing down those envelopes
Lack of communication on the telephone line
But don't judge us by distance
Or the difference between us
Try to look at it with an open mind
For where there is one room, you'll always find another
Two rooms at the end of the world
Well we've both ridden the wagon bit the tail off the dragon
Borne our swords like steel knights on the highway
Washing down the dirt roads
Hosing off our dirty clothes
Coming to terms with the times that we couldn't but we tried
Where there is one room, you'll always find another
Two rooms at the end of the world
Door to door they would whisper, will they ever get together
Their rooms are different temperatures i'm told
There's a change in their thinking
And their habits seem uneven
But together the two of them were mining gold

3. _ Take Me Back
Music by elton john
Lyrics by gary osborne
Available on the album 21 at 33
If you want my loving take me back
If you miss my touch little girl take me back
When the dreams you lean on are beginning to crack
Open up your heart little girl and take me back
If you want my loving then take me back
If you're on your own little girl take me back
When the nights grow longer turning blacker than black
Open up your heart little girl and take me back
Playing a part you're well prepared for, there you stand
With all i ever cared for in your hand
I'm waiting all the time
For some kind of sign from you
And i'll go on and on this way
Waiting for the day
When i will hear you say
You'll take me back
If you want my loving well take me back
If you're feeling down little girl
Then you'll take me back
When you look around you for the love that you lack
Open up your heart little girl
You got my heart little girl
Make a start little girl
And say you'll take me back
Take me back

4. _ Sartorial Eloquence
Music by elton john
Lyrics by tom robinson
Available on the album 21 at 33
You've a certain sartorial eloquence
And a style that's almost of your own
You've got the knack of being so laid-back
It's like talking to the great unknown
You've got a self-sufficient swept-back hairdo
Pretty certain that you've got it made
Oh your life-style shows in the clothes you chose
Sitting pretty in the masquerade
Sing it
Don't you wanna play this game no more
Don't you wanna play no more
Don't you wanna play this game no more
Don't you wanna play no more
You remain the only main contender
Though you never, you never meant to lose at all
Down at the mouth yet unsurrounded
Adamant before the fall
Though when you go you know i might be lonesome
But i'll keep it under close control
Go and get your kicks and babe let's call it quits
I believe i'm feeling indisposed
Don't you wanna play this game no more
When you go you know i might be lonesome
But i'll keep it under close control
Go and get your kicks and babe let's call it quits
I believe i'm feeling indisposed

5. _ Never Gonna Fall In Love Again
Music by elton john
Lyrics by tom robinson
Available on the album 21 at 33
Never meant to be so friendly
Never made the room look nice
Never heed a word of warning
Never take my own advice
I got a brand-new problem
Pretty and she's 5 foot 10
I been in love three times this week
I'm just about to fall again
I don't want to fall in love
Never gonna fall in love, again
I don't want to fall in love
Never gonna fall in love
I'm never gonna fall in love, again
Never meant to be so sexist
It's so hard to overcome
Trying hard to fight the feeling
Lechery can be such fun
`cause everywhere there's lots of foxes
And every cat i meet's a tom
I wish she didn't make me rabid
I wish she wouldn't turn me on
`cause everywhere there's lots of foxes
And every cat i meet's a tom
I wish she didn't make me rabid
I wish she wouldn't turn me on

6. _ White Lady White Powder
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album 21 at 33
Dust settles on a thin cloud
Sends a fog drifting to a worn out crowd
I've had my face in a mirror for twenty four hours
Staring at a line of white powder
High-priced madness pays the tab
I've scraped too much of nothing from your plastic bag
I'm a catatonic son of a bitch who's had
A touch too much of white powder
And she's a habit i can't handle
For a reason i can't say
I'm in love with a wild white lady
She's as sweet as the stories say
White powder white lady
You're one and the same
Come on down to my house won't you
And hit this boy again
Shock waves to a tired brain
Sends that hungry lady to my door again
She's my shelter from the storm when i feel the rain
Entertaining white powder
I feel i'm dry-docked and tongue-tied
Heaven sends a stretcher for the kids to ride
I might just escape while the others might die
Riding on a high of white powder

7. _ Little Jeannie
Music by elton john
Lyrics by gary osborne
Available on the album 21 at 33
Oh little jeannie, you got so much love, little jeannie
And you take it where it strikes and give it to the likes of me
Oh little jeannie, she got so much love, little jeannie
So i see you when i can, you make me all a man can be
And i want you to be my acrobat, i want you to be my lover
Oh there were others who would treat you cruel
And oh little jeannie, you were always someone's fool
Little jeannie, you got so much time, little jeannie
Though you've grown beyond your years, you still retain the fears of youth
Oh little jeannie, you got so much time, little jeannie
But you're burning it up so fast, searching for some lasting truth
And i want you to be my acrobat, i want you to be my lover
Oh there were others who would treat you cruel
But oh jeannie, i will always be your fool
And i want you to be my acrobat, i want you to be my lover
Oh there were others, and i've known quite a few
But oh oh jeannie, i'm still in love with you
Stepped into my life from a bad dream
Making the life that i had seem suddenly shiny and new
Oh jeannie i'm so in love with you
Stepped into my life from a bad dream

8. _ Give Me The Love
Music by elton john
Lyrics by judy tzuke
Available on the album 21 at 33
You've been crying, and i'm crazy about you
I've been lying, and hanging you up, `cause
I'm deep on the inside, but flash on the outside
I am the thunder, and you are my lightning
Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart
Give me the love, baby, give me the key to your heart
Give me the love, give me the key to your heart
Months of watching, and hours of hoping
That you'd want me, when you see me again
For i am an eagle, but my wings are all tied up
You got the power to fly me again
You've been trying to build walls all around you
But you're lying, `cause i've already been through
And i've seen you trying to capture that feeling
But you're chasing what you've never believed in
Tell me you love me, tell me you need me

9. _ Chasing The Crown
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album 21 at 33
I built a wall in china, i sank an ocean liner
I've wrecked homes, i've burned thrones, chasing the crown
I've put thorns in your feet, i spread plague in the streets
I've sprung traps, confused maps, chasing the crown
I'm chasing the crown till he bites the apple
I was licking my lips till his son come down
I'm chasing the crown, the crown, i'm chasing the crown
I'm taking a turn in the right direction
By leaving his soul in the lost and found
I'm chasing the crown, i'm chasing the crown
I saw the tea float in boston, i saw the live wire shock them
I made them float, i made them drown, chasing the crown
I laid the desert sands, i froze the polar caps
Well, they'd dry out, and i'd shout "hey i'm chasing the crown"
