"Piano Man"
by Billy Joel

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

Very likely it's both -- or maybe there's something up with the beer although I understand it was recently passed by management.
Now some hush please--- I'm trying to listen to Liberace on the piano.
