The Entertainer歌词

[00:16.67]I am the entertainer
[00:18.86]And I know just where I stand
[00:21.36]Another serenader
[00:23.55]And another long-haired band
[00:26.11]Today I am your champion
[00:28.17]I may have won your hearts
[00:30.48]But I know the game, you'll forget my name
[00:32.92]And I won't be here in another year
[00:35.80]If I don't stay on the charts
[00:41.61]I am the entertainer
[00:43.86]And I've had to pay my price
[00:46.17]The things I did not know at first
[00:48.48]I learned by doin' twice
[00:50.61]Ah, but still they come to haunt me
[00:52.92]Still they want their say
[00:55.41]So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants
[00:57.65]I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check
[00:59.84]And they go their merry way
[01:06.34]I am the entertainer
[01:08.72]Been all around the world
[01:10.97]I've played all kinds of palaces
[01:13.34]And laid all kinds of girls
[01:15.78]I can't remember faces
[01:17.90]I don't remember names
[01:20.47]Ah, but what the hell
[01:22.09]You know it's just as well
[01:23.89]'Cause after a while and a thousand miles
[01:25.94]It all becomes the same
[01:27.19]
[01:36.07]I am the entertainer
[01:38.44]I bring to you my songs
[01:41.07]I'd like to spend a day or two
[01:42.95]I can't stay that long
[01:45.38]No, I've got to meet expenses
[01:47.57]I got to stay in line
[01:50.01]Gotta get those fees to the agencies
[01:52.13]And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay
[01:55.01]So I just don't have the time
[01:58.63]
[02:01.19]I am the entertainer
[02:03.07]I come to do my show
[02:05.44]You've heard my latest record
[02:07.76]It's been on the radio
[02:10.01]Ah, it took me years to write it
[02:12.13]They were the best years of my life
[02:14.63]It was a beautiful song
[02:15.88]But it ran too long
[02:17.07]If you're gonna have a hit
[02:18.63]You gotta make it fit
[02:19.63]So they cut it down to 3:05
[02:30.70]I am the entertainer
[02:32.51]The idol of my age
[02:34.82]I make all kinds of money
[02:37.01]When I go on the stage
[02:39.26]Ah, you've seen me in the papers
[02:41.70]I've been in the magazines
[02:43.88]But if I go cold I won't get sold
[02:46.32]I'll get put in the back in the discount rack
[02:49.01]Like another can of beans
[02:55.13]I am the entertainer
[02:57.20]And I know just where I stand
[02:59.51]Another serenader
[03:02.01]And another long-haired band
[03:04.70]Today I am your champion
[03:07.20]I may have won your hearts
[03:09.45]But I know the game, you'll forget my name
[03:11.70]I won't be here in another year
[03:14.38]If I don't stay on the charts
