The Entertainer - Billy Joel[00:00:01]
I am the entertainer [00:00:02]
And I know just where I stand:[00:00:17]
Another serenader [00:00:20]
And another long-haired band [00:00:21]
Today I am your champion [00:00:24]
I may have won your hearts [00:00:27]
But I know the game [00:00:29]
You will forget my name [00:00:31]
And I won't be here[00:00:33]
In another year [00:00:34]
If I don't stay on the charts [00:00:35]
I am the entertainer [00:00:37]
And I've had to pay my price [00:00:42]
The things I did not know at first [00:00:45]
I learned by doin' twice [00:00:48]
Ah but still they come to haunt me [00:00:49]
Still they want their say [00:00:52]
So I've learned to dance[00:00:54]
With a hand in my pants [00:00:56]
And they rub my neck [00:00:58]
And I write 'em a check [00:00:59]
And they go their merry way [00:01:01]
I am the entertainer [00:01:02]
Been all around the world [00:01:07]
I've played all kinds of palaces [00:01:09]
And laid all kinds of girls [00:01:12]
I can't remember faces [00:01:14]
I don't remember names [00:01:16]
Ah but what the hell [00:01:19]
You know it's just as well [00:01:21]
'Cause after a while[00:01:23]
And a thousand miles [00:01:24]
It all becomes the same [00:01:25]
I am the entertainer [00:01:26]
I bring to you my songs [00:01:37]
I'd like to spend a day or two [00:01:39]
I can't stay that long [00:01:42]
No I've got to meet expenses [00:01:44]
I got to stay in line [00:01:46]
Gotta get those fees[00:01:49]
To the agencies [00:01:50]
And I'd love to stay [00:01:51]
But there's bills to pay [00:01:53]
So I just don't have the time [00:01:54]
I am the entertainer [00:01:56]
I come to do my show [00:02:01]
You've heard my latest record [00:02:04]
It's been on the radio [00:02:06]
Ah it took me years to write it [00:02:09]
They were the best years of my life [00:02:12]
It was a beautiful song [00:02:14]
But it ran too long [00:02:15]
If you're gonna have a hit [00:02:17]
You gotta make it fit--[00:02:18]
So they cut it down to 3:05 [00:02:19]
I am the entertainer [00:02:24]
The idol of my age [00:02:31]
I make all kinds of money [00:02:33]
When I go on the stage [00:02:36]
Ah you've seen me in the papers [00:02:38]
I've been in the magazines [00:02:42]
But if I go cold [00:02:43]
I won't get sold [00:02:45]
I'll get put in the back[00:02:46]
In the discount rack [00:02:47]
Like another can of beans [00:02:48]
I am the entertainer [00:02:50]
And I know just where I stand:[00:02:55]
Another serenader [00:02:58]
And another long-haired band [00:03:00]
Today I am your champion [00:03:02]
I may have won your hearts [00:03:05]
But I know the game [00:03:08]
You will forget my name [00:03:10]
And I won't be here[00:03:11]
In another year [00:03:13]
If I don't stay on the charts[00:03:13]
