Billy Joel-The Entertainer
Billy Joel-The Entertainer 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 will 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, And they rub my neck, And I write ‘em a check, And they go their merry way. 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 …

Let’s hunt down the 7 seven bastards who disliked this video!!!!!!!
Thank you so much! He has done so many great songs, but this my favorite!!! Thanks for the lyrics as well!
@chyarthur Please, Chyarther. This is a good opportunity for a lesson. Now, this is what you would call a “Troll”. This kind of person slugs around the internet, commenting things like “Justin Bieber is way better than anything the Beatles ever made!!1″ And vice versa. The best thing to do with a Troll is just to not pay it any attention whatsoever. Hope you’ve learned something new today.
@applefrog111 you didn’t answer my question so I’m just gonna assume there’s nothing wrong with it

@vusa69
Says the guy who liked “chocking victim-in my grave”.
GaY!!!!!. i hope this guy gets super aids
also on “street life serenade” if i am correct.
the only song of his that is on his greatest hits not on another album is “only human (second wind)”
Actually, you know. I don’t really think you can call this a MOVIE per se…
@AlexZio123 the entertainer has a different rhythmic melody and most likely different key signature and measure count-off i know both songs very well and both very different. enjoy billy joel for he has meanings in his songs and not cracked up shit about how rapists live.
Hit #34 in Billboard. God bless!
did you listen to this song at all dumbass? it has teh same title but this is completely different. the 1902 song that you’re thinking of doesn’t even have lyrics. so who’s dumb now?
ok just as an FYI to AlexZio123 Billy joel wrote this song at the music industry because he wrote a song and they said it was too long and the he had to cut it down to 3:05 before they would publish it and he was angry at them so he wrote the entertainer… maybe you should do a lil research and find out just why people write their songs before you start talking about them…
OMG I WANT A SYNTH ORGAN!!!!!!!!
