Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album too low for zero<br><br>You don't pass your time in limbo<br>Or hang out with the crowd<br>Sitting on the stoop like a little girl<br>Who took the wrong road into town<br>But you got that short cut way about you<br>And no one's gonna stare you down<br>You cook much better on a lower flame<br>You burn much better when the sun goes down<br><br>And heaven can wait<br>But you ought to be a saint<br>I got your very best intentions<br>Helping me along<br>And if I ever fail to mention<br>You were an overnight sensation<br>Well take it from me<br>My baby's a saint<br>My baby's a saint<br><br>I believe you were a new arrival<br>On the fast train passing through<br>And you traded in your luck for survival<br>To sweeten up the witch's brew<br>You had a better way of working magic<br>A little mystery in your eyes<br>Instead of rolling over you remained the same<br>You took the whole world by surprise
