《The Entertainer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Entertainer - Billy Joel (比利·乔尔)

[00:00:02] I am the entertainer

[00:00:17] And I know just where I stand:

[00:00:20] Another serenader

[00:00:21] And another long-haired band

[00:00:24] Today I am your champion

[00:00:27] I may have won your hearts

[00:00:29] But I know the game

[00:00:31] You will forget my name

[00:00:33] And I won't be here

[00:00:34] In another year

[00:00:35] If I don't stay on the charts

[00:00:37] I am the entertainer

[00:00:42] And I've had to pay my price

[00:00:45] The things I did not know at first

[00:00:48] I learned by doin' twice

[00:00:49] Ah but still they come to haunt me

[00:00:52] Still they want their say

[00:00:54] So I've learned to dance

[00:00:56] With a hand in my pants

[00:00:58] And they rub my neck

[00:00:59] And I write 'em a check

[00:01:01] And they go their merry way

[00:01:02] I am the entertainer

[00:01:07] Been all around the world

[00:01:09] I've played all kinds of palaces

[00:01:12] And laid all kinds of girls

[00:01:14] I can't remember faces

[00:01:16] I don't remember names

[00:01:19] Ah but what the hell

[00:01:21] You know it's just as well

[00:01:23] 'Cause after a while

[00:01:24] And a thousand miles

[00:01:25] It all becomes the same

[00:01:26] I am the entertainer

[00:01:37] I bring to you my songs

[00:01:39] I'd like to spend a day or two

[00:01:42] I can't stay that long

[00:01:44] No I've got to meet expenses

[00:01:46] I got to stay in line

[00:01:49] Gotta get those fees

[00:01:50] To the agencies

[00:01:51] And I'd love to stay

[00:01:53] But there's bills to pay

[00:01:54] So I just don't have the time

[00:01:56] I am the entertainer

[00:02:01] I come to do my show

[00:02:04] You've heard my latest record

[00:02:06] It's been on the radio

[00:02:09] Ah it took me years to write it

[00:02:12] They were the best years of my life

[00:02:14] It was a beautiful song

[00:02:15] But it ran too long

[00:02:17] If you're gonna have a hit

[00:02:18] You gotta make it fit--

[00:02:19] So they cut it down to 3:05

[00:02:24] I am the entertainer

[00:02:31] The idol of my age

[00:02:33] I make all kinds of money

[00:02:36] When I go on the stage

[00:02:38] Ah you've seen me in the papers

[00:02:42] I've been in the magazines

[00:02:43] But if I go cold

[00:02:45] I won't get sold

[00:02:46] I'll get put in the back

[00:02:47] In the discount rack

[00:02:48] Like another can of beans

[00:02:50] I am the entertainer

[00:02:55] And I know just where I stand:

[00:02:58] Another serenader

[00:03:00] And another long-haired band

[00:03:02] Today I am your champion

[00:03:05] I may have won your hearts

[00:03:08] But I know the game

[00:03:10] You will forget my name

[00:03:11] And I won't be here

[00:03:13] In another year

[00:03:13] If I don't stay on the charts
