Message: <blockquote data-quote="Adam La Spata" data-source="post: 7133367" data-attributes="member: 6887299">I adapted Billy Joel's "The Entertainer" for my bard. It really fits if you have the Entertainer background. Joel did most of the work; I just changed a few words and took out a verse.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 nameAnd I won't be here in another yearWithout my cunning arts. 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 the dance that is romance. I play my flute and I strum my luteAnd they go their merry way. I am the entertainer, been all around the world.I’ve played all kinds of palaces and loved 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 milesIt all becomes the same. I am the entertainer. I come to do my showYou've heard me sing in taverns a song you may not know. Ah, it took me years to write it - the best years of my life.It was a beautiful song but it ran so longJust like I did: from the husband, I hidWhen I loved my neighbor’s wife. I am the entertainer and you know just where I stand:Not just a serenader or another long-haired band.I’ll always be a champion for I have moved your heartsAnd you know my fame, won’t forget my nameAnd my magic clear means that I’ll be here With all my cunning arts.</blockquote>
