Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
he gets me my drinks for free.
Lilith
03-28-2006, 07:57 PM
And he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke

but there's some place that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill I believe this is killing me."

As the smile ran away from his face
(this is one of my favorite songs.)
by the way, If you'd like to see what this song looks like when translated from english to german and then back to english, check this site out. Thought it was pretty funny. http://www.crazylyrics.com/billy-joel-piano-man.htm
Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
(mine too :D )
Those lyrics are funny as hell Galatea.
And the original Piano Man lyrics are very copywritten... :p

Oldfart
03-28-2006, 10:56 PM

They're sharing a drink they call loneliness
Lilith
03-29-2006, 05:28 AM
But it's better than drinking alone (or singing alone)
Oldfart
03-29-2006, 05:31 AM

And the manager gives me a smile
musicman
03-29-2006, 07:35 PM
cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see to forget about life for a while
1nutworld
03-29-2006, 08:41 PM
and the piano sounds like a carnival
musicman
03-29-2006, 10:23 PM
and the microphone smells like a beer
musicman
03-29-2006, 10:24 PM
and they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar and say man, what are you doin' here?
1nutworld
03-29-2006, 10:48 PM
