WE BUILT THIS CITY (LYRICS BY BERNIE TAUPIN) ELTON JOHN'S LYRICIST Say you don't know me, or recognize my face Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight Too many runaways eating up the night Marconi plays the Mamba, Listen to the radio Don't you remember? We built this city We built this city on rock and roll Someone always playing corporation games Who cares they're always changing corporation names We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage They call us irresponsible, write us off the page Marconi plays the Mamba, Listen to the radio Don't you remember? We built this city We built this city on rock and roll! It's just another Sunday in a tired old street Police have got the choke hold, and we just lost the beat Who counts the money underneath the bar Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars Don't tell us you need us, 'cause we're the ship of fools Looking for America, crawling through your schools I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday, not seein' that bumper-to-bumper traffic It's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps AND THE SONG DOESN'T TELL YOU THE NAME OF THE CITY |

CRITICS HAVE CITED THE FOLLOWING REASONS WHY THIS SONG IS BAD: Someone always playing corporation games Who cares their always changing corporation names BEING PERFORMED BY A BAND THAT CHANGED ITS NAME FROM JEFFERSON AIRPLANE, TO JEFFERSON STARSHIP, TO STARSHIP WE BUILT THIS CITY IS REPEATED TOO MANY TIMES THERE'S SUPPOSED TO BE A DASH BETWEEN HOOP AND LA (HOOP-LA) THAT'S IT! THAT'S PRETTY SILLY! |

I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday, not seein' that bumper-to-bumper traffic It's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps |
