Elton John - Can I Put You On (Rare Masters)

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the soundtrack Friends

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

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

This is NOT from The One Tour. It appears to be from Elton's New Haven concert on 10/20/1993 when he was touring with Ray Cooper. This was a few shows before the South Africa shows and the only video from that particular Elton/Ray tour where he plays "A Woman's Needs." Thanks for the post KaptainfantastiK!! Great to see this version of the song!

that's an amazing trivia!! i have always been interested in the piano he uses and the digital post hoc make over at the back stage. i play just an ordinary piano forte, but really wants something like a digital/acoustic combo one day!!! i guess his voice don't go well with acoustic sound huh? except his yonger days at the Edinburgh Playhouse concert, his early 90s unplugged sounded much inferior.

It's not actually to do with his vocals, he prefers the brightness of the Roland SA synthesis based module; it cuts through the band when he is with them and is very expressive, to suit his playing style.

What a fruit. Elton should just cut his dick off and grow boobies and have done with it.
