The Entertainer Lyrics
I am the entertainer
And I know just where I stand
Another
serenader
And another long-haired band
Today I am your champion
I
may have won your hearts
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
And
I won't be here in another year
If I don't stay on the charts
I am
the entertainer
And I've had to pay my price
The things I did not know
at first
I learned by doin' twice
Ah, but still they come to haunt
me
Still they want their say
So I've learned to dance with a hand in my
pants
I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check
And they go their
merry way
I am the entertainer
Been all around the world
I've
played all kinds of palaces
And laid all kinds of girls
I can't
remember faces
I don't remember names
Ah, but what the hell
You
know it's just as well
'Cause after a while and a thousand miles
It all
becomes the same
I am the entertainer
I bring to you my
songs
I'd like to spend a day or two
I can't stay that long
No,
I've got to meet expenses
I got to stay in line
Gotta get those fees to
the agencies
And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay
So I just
don't have the time
I am the entertainer
I come to do my
show
You've heard my latest record
It's been on the radio
Ah, it
took me years to write it
They were the best years of my life
It was a
beautiful song
But it ran too long
If you're gonna have a hit
You
gotta make it fit
So they cut it down to 3:05
I am the
entertainer
The idol of my age
I make all kinds of money
When I go
on the stage
Ah, you've seen me in the papers
I've been in the
magazines
But if I go cold I won't get sold
I'll get put in the back in
the discount rack
Like another can of beans
I am the
entertainer
And I know just where I stand
Another serenader
And
another long-haired band
Today I am your champion
I may have won your
hearts
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
I won't be here in
another year
If I don't stay on the charts
