Lyrics for Song: Entertainer 
Lyrics for Album: Never Could Toe the Mark [RCA Victor] [1984]
  
               
  39010>(Billy Joel)
 
 
  I am the entertainer,
  I know just where I stand
  Another serenader,
  Another long haired man.
 
 
  Today I am your champion,
  I may have won your heart
  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
 
 
  I am the entertainer
  Had to pay my price
  Things I didn't know at first
  I learned by doing twice.
 
 
  But still they come to haunt me
  Still they want their say
  So I learn to dance
  With my hands in my pants.
 
 
  Rub my neck
  And just write 'em a check
  And they'll be on their way.
 
 
  I am the entertainer
  I've been all around the world
  I played all kinds of places
  Played all kinds of girls.
 
 
  I don't remember faces
  I don't remember names
  What the hell, it's just as well
  'Cause after a while
  And a thousand miles
  It all becomes the same.
 
 
  I am the entertainer
  I come to do my show
  You heard my latest record
  Spin on the radio.
 
 
  Well, it took me years to write it
  The best years of my life
  It's a beautiful song
  But it ran too long
  Wanna have a hit
  You gotta make it fit
  So they cut it down to 3:05.
 
 
  I am the entertainer
  Idol of my age
  Make all kinds of money
  Boy, when I go on the stage.
 
 
  They see me in the paper
  And in the magazines
  If I go cold
  My feet get sore
  Put me in the back
  Of the discount rack
  Like another can of beans.
 
 
  I am the entertainer
  I know just where I stand
  Another serenader,
  Another long haired man.
 
 
  I am the entertainer...
