Entertainer Lyrics - Streetlife Serenade - Billy Joel

I am the entertainer 

And I know just where I stand 

Another serenader 

And another long-haired band 

Today I am your champion 

I may have won your hearts 

But I know the game, you'll forget my name 

And I won't be here in another year 

If I don't stay on the charts 

 

I am the entertainer 

And I've had to pay my price 

The things I did not know at first 

I learned by doin' twice 

Ah, but still they come to haunt me 

Still they want their say 

So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants 

I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check 

And they go their merry way

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

I am the entertainer 

Been all around the world 

I've played all kinds of palaces 

And laid all kinds of girls 

I can't remember faces 

I don't remember names 

Ah, but what the hell 

You know it's just as well 

'cause after a while and a thousand miles 

It all becomes the same 

 

I am the entertainer 

I bring to you my songs 

I'd like to spend a day or two 

I can't stay that long 

No, I've got to meet expenses 

I got to stay in line 

Gotta get those fees to the agencies 

And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay 

So I just don't have the time

I am the entertainer 

I come to do my show 

You've heard my latest record 

It's been on the radio 

Ah, it took me years to write it 

They were the best years of my life 

It was a beautiful song 

But it ran too long 

If you're gonna have a hit 

You gotta make it fit 

So they cut it down to 3: 05 

 

I am the entertainer 

The idol of my age 

I make all kinds of money 

When I go on the stage 

Ah, you've seen me in the papers 

I've been in the magazines 

But if I go cold I won't get sold 

I'll get put in the back in the discount rack 

Like another can of beans 

 

I am the entertainer 

And I know just where I stand 

Another serenader 

And another long-haired band 

Today I am your champion 

I may have won your hearts 

But I know the game, you'll forget my name 

I won't be here in another year 

If I don't stay on the charts
