#Mr. Piano Man how your
fingers rain down on the keys
dancing a somber ballet
capturing the feeling of being empty
like those bottles underneath
Here Mr. Piano Man
the next drink is on me
while we sift through debris
of our melancholy
Every note stings
every chord bleeds
woe is you
and
woe is me
play
Mr. Piano Man
a song to our ennui
Let it rain Mr. Piano Man
let the storm hammer the strings
lets swim in the puddle
of whats spilt underneath
Oh Mr. Piano Man
What is that I hear?
That note that was just hit
it sounded rather queer
there is no room for happiness
at the bottom of this beer
No! NO! Mr. Piano Man
I don't want the sun
go back to stormy waters
to where you had begun
I thought you a friend
I thought we allies
I thought we understood
the sounds of demise
Mr. Piano Man how you so betrayed
with your songs of love and spring
every note my heart aches
every chord a bee sting
Mr. Piano Man this is my goodbye
I am leaving you now
please don't cry
I am going to my new friend
Mr. Bartender
How do you do?
Give me an endless bottle
and another drunk to talk to.
