Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s 11 o’clock on a wednesday
i’m badly in need of break
there’s a beautiful blonde singing next me
she’s making all kinds of mistakes
she says “i heard this song once when i was 16
and i’ve loved it my whole life long
it’s my 21st birthday and i’m really drunk
and everyone will sing along”

[refrain]
oh no, no, no, no, no
oh no, no, no, no, oh no

[chorus]
please don’t make me play “piano man”
’cause i’ve already played it five times tonight
i don’t expect you to understand
but my hands are too sore
and my heart is too tired
to put up a fight

[verse 2]
tom at the bar has his face in his phonе
he never rеmembers my name
he pours the drinks while he cl!cks the links
searching for fortune and fame
he says “buddy, can you help me find someone online
this pretty young thing i just met?
she’s a corporate lawyer from the upper east side
her dad’s worth a billion, i bet”
[refrain]
oh no, no, no, no, no
oh no, no, no, no, oh no

[verse 3]
bob is in some kind of retail
i think he sells secondhand clothes
and he’s talking with tim or maybe it’s jim
they’ve all been at my last three shows
and the waitress is angry and miserable
while the jersey boys jump up and down
they shout and they scream, they just do what they please
’cause this is their night on the town

[chorus]
please don’t make me play “piano man”
’cause i’ve already played it five times tonight
i don’t expect you to understand
but my hands are too sore
and my heart is too tired
to put up a fight

[verse 4]
i’d say the bar’s pretty empty
but it’s just your average wednesday
billy joel’s rocking the garden
and is this place is four blocks away
at 11:05 they come tumbling in
they fill up their drinks and i fill up with fear
’cause it cuts like a knife, i’ve sang it all my life
man, what am i doing here?
[refrain]
oh no, no, no, no, no
oh no, no, no, no, oh no

[chorus]
please don’t make me play “piano man”
’cause i’ve already played it five times tonight
i don’t expect you to understand
but my hands are too sore
and my heart is too tired
to put up a fight
