Generate meaning
1
I am the entertainer
2
And I know just where I stand
3
Another serenader
4
And another long haired band
5
Today I am your champion
6
I may have won your hearts
7
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
8
And I won't be here in another year
9
If I don't stay on the charts
10
I am the entertainer
11
And I've had to pay my price
12
The things I did not know at first
13
I learned by doin' twice
14
Ah, but still they come to haunt me
15
Still they want their say
16
So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants
17
I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check
18
And they go their merry way
19
I am the entertainer
20
Been all around the world
21
I've played all kinds of palaces
22
And laid all kinds of girls
23
I can't remember faces
24
I don't remember names
25
Ah, but what the hell
26
You know it's just as well
27
'Cause after a while and a thousand miles
28
It all becomes the same
29
I am the entertainer
30
I bring to you my songs
31
I'd like to spend a day or two
32
I can't stay that long
33
No, I've got to meet expenses
34
I got to stay in line
35
Gotta get those fees to the agencies
36
And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay
37
So I just don't have the time
38
I am the entertainer
39
I come to do my show
40
You've heard my latest record
41
It's been on the radio
42
Ah, it took me years to write it
43
They were the best years of my life
44
It was a beautiful song
45
But it ran too long
46
If you're gonna have a hit
47
You gotta make it fit
48
So they cut it down to 3:05
49
I am the entertainer
50
The idol of my age
51
I make all kinds of money
52
When I go on the stage
53
Ah, you've seen me in the papers
54
I've been in the magazines
55
But if I go cold I won't get sold
56
I'll get put in the back in the discount rack
57
Like another can of beans
58
I am the entertainer
59
And I know just where I stand
60
Another serenader
61
And another long haired band
62
Today I am your champion
63
I may have won your hearts
64
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
65
I won't be here in another year
66
If I don't stay on the charts
