[02:50.00]Piano Man - Billy Joel
[02:50.00]It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
[02:50.00]The regular crowd shuffles in
[02:50.00]There's an old man sitting next to me
[02:50.00]Making love to his tonic and gin
[02:50.00]He says, "Son can you play me a memory
[02:50.00]I'm not really sure how it goes
[02:50.00]But it's sad and it's sweet
[02:50.00]And I knew it complete
[02:50.00]When I wore a younger man's clothes"
[02:50.00]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[02:50.00]Sing us a song tonight
[02:50.00]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[02:50.00]And you've got us feeling alright
[02:50.00]Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
[02:50.00]He gets me my drinks for free
[02:50.00]And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
[02:50.00]But there's someplace that he'd rather be
[02:50.00]He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
[02:50.00]As a smile ran away from his face
[02:50.00]"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
[02:50.00]If I could get out of this place"
[02:50.00]Now Paul is a real estate novelist
[02:50.00]Who never had time for a wife
[02:50.00]And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
[02:50.00]And probably will be for life
[02:50.00]And the waitress is practicing politics
[02:50.00]As the businessmen slowly get stoned
[02:50.00]Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
[02:50.00]But it's better than drinking alone
[02:50.00]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[02:50.00]Sing us a song tonight
[02:50.00]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[02:50.00]And you've got us feeling alright
[02:50.00]It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
[02:50.00]And the manager gives me a smile
[02:50.00]'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
[02:50.00]To forget about life for a while
[02:50.00]And the piano sounds like a carnival
[02:50.00]And the microphone smells like a beer
[02:50.00]And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
[02:50.00]And say "Man what are you doing here?"
[02:50.00]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[02:50.00]Sing us a song tonight
[02:50.00]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[02:50.00]And you've got us feeling alright
