The Lyrics
(instrumental opening)
I'm still the entertainer
and I play this Madison Square.
The Rangers in the Playoffs
they didn't stay long there.
Ah, the Knicks didn't even make it.
James Dolan is a louse.
So they said, "Billy Joel, come on, we need some soul
and Sir Paul's abroad and Kanye's a fraud
and we gotta fill the house!"
Oh-whoa!
I'm still the entertainer.
I'm 60 and I'm sore.
I think this stage I took at first
in nineteen seventy-four.
Aw, and still this place will haunt me.
Still, I get my pay.
And the King of Pop, this year he did stop
and the Grateful Dead, now they are, instead
so promoters come my way.
Oh-whoa.
I'm still the entertainer
and I've been all around the world.
You've heard the latest jazz CD
recorded by my girl.
I can't remember faces
but that's because I'm old.
But when Alexa plays I become amazed.
She don't sound like me, that's okay, you see
and the legacy won't grow cold.
I'm still the entertainer.
I keep on keeping on.
You heard me play this joint last year
paired up with Elton John.
Aw, we both can meet expenses.
We no longer need the dime.
But we get those fans out into the stands
and we'd love to stay with these songs we play
and we will while we still have time!
I'm still the entertainer.
I know you think that's news.
I know I don't have new songs.
For that, you go see Bruce.
Aw, I've had to go to rehab
and I've now lost my third wife.
But I still can play here on my Steinway
and my voice no worse, so go call off the hearse
'cause for now, I'm still alive!
I'm still the entertainer
into another age.
I look at these young singers
and they inspire rage.
Aw, Alicia, Pink and Taylor
I like those singing queens.
But for some of thse guys, I don't get a rise.
On them I haven't spent more than 50 Cent
and they're not worth a hill of beans!
I'm still the entertainer
and I know just where I stand:
Another serenader
and a somewhat different band.
Today, I'm still a champion.
I still can catch your hearts.
'Cause I know the game, you still know my name
and this player's here after all these years
so the critics can suck the charts!
(instrumental close)
