Joel Billy - Piano man - radio edit lyrics

It's eight o'clock here ON a Thursday The regular crowd shuffles in There's an old man sitting NEXT to me Making love TO his tonic and gin He says, "Son, can you play me a melody? I'm not really sure how IT goes But it's sad and it's sweet And I knew IT complete When I wore a younger man's clothes." La, DA-da, da-DE-da... Da-da, da-DE-da, da-dum... Sing us a song, you're THE piano man Sing us a song tonight Well, we're all IN the mood for a melody And you've got us feeling ALL right Now, Gunther, the bar guy's a friend OF mine He gets me lattes FOR free And I think it would seem THAT he loves Rachel Greene But Ross is the guy WITH whom she'll be He says, "Joey, I think this is k**ing me" And the smile runs away FROM my face Don't you know that I'm Chandler, and HE'S Joey After all the years we've come TO this place? La, DA-da, da-DE-da... Da-da, da-DE-da, da-dum... Now, Ross is a paleontologist Who's about to divorce HIS fifth wife And he's talking with Phoebe And sounding SO needy Hoping Rachel will come back for life And the waitress who replaced Rachel spills a cup Making Monica ever more uptight Yes, we're sharing a life AS an "odd couple" But it beats being alone... TO-night! (BJ's incredible piano break Accompanied by Phoebe's rudimentary guitar licks and "La la la la-la, la-la...") Sing us a song, you're THE piano man Sing us a song tonight Well, we're all IN the mood for a melody And you've got us feeling ALL right It's a Central Perk crowd here ON a Thursday And now Monica gives me a smile 'cause I know that it's me When she says, "I'll 'do laundry'" And I get me some wife for a while And the piano sounds like a carnival And the microphone smells like a beer And Joey HAS gone away And he's starring with Drea Sayin', "Man, what am I doin' HERE?" La, DA-da, da-DE-da... Da-da, da-DE-da, da-dum... Sing us a song, you're THE piano man Sing us a song tonight Well, we're all IN the mood for a melody And you've got us feeling ALL right
