Overnight sensation

WV1983/2024

 

"...

I believe you were a new arrival

On the fast train passing through

And you traded in your luck for survival

To sweeten up the witch's brew

You had a better way of working magic

A little mystery in your eyes

Instead of rolling over you remained the same

You took the whole world by surprise

 

And heaven can wait

But you ought to be a saint

I got your very best intentions

Helping me along

And if I ever fail to mention

You were an overnight sensation

Well take it from me

My baby's a saint..."

 

SAINT - Music & lyrics Elton John & Bernie Taupin, 1983.
