Can I Put You On Lyrics - 11-17-70 - Elton John

From Friends soundtrack 

I work for the foundry for a penny and a half a day 

Like a blind street musician I never see those who pay 

It's dirty work in Birmingham 

Better deal for a Sheffield man 

If he can rivet then his kids can buy 

Candy from the candy man

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

And the van that comes around weekends 

Selling fancy city things 

Sold by the man with the trilby hat 

And the whiskers spread like wings 

You can hear him sing 

Oh you can hear him sing 

Can I put you on, people can I put you on 

Tell you that I love you people 

Sing a salesman's song and put you on 

And a second cousin works in the pits in Newcastle on Tyne 

And he don't care if it rains outside, there's coal dust on his mind 

It's dirty work in Manchester 

But the crew gets paid its gelt 

Bang on the bell on Friday 

You buys a little something for yourself 

And the van that comes around weekends 

Selling fancy city things 

Sold by the man in the trilby hat 

And the whiskers spread like wings 

You can hear him sing 

Oh you can hear him sing 

Can I put you on, people can I put you on 

Tell you that I love you people 

Sing a salesman's song and put you on
