Intro

 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 name

 And I won't be here in another year

 If I don't stay on the charts

 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 to dance with a hand in my pants

 I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check

 And they go their merry way

 I am the entertainer, been all around the world

 I've played all kinds of palaces and laid 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 miles

It all becomes the same

 I am the entertainer, I bring to you my songs

 I'd like to spend a day or two, but I can't stay that long

 No, I've got to meet expenses, I got to stay in line

 Gotta get those fees to the agencies

 And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay

 So I just don't have the time

 I am the entertainer, I come to do my show

 You've heard my latest record, it's been on the radio

 Ah, it took me years to write it, they were the best years of my life

 It was a beautiful song, but it ran too long

 If you're gonna have a hit, you gotta make it fit

 So they cut it down to 3:05

I am the entertainer, the idol of my age

 I make all kinds of money when I go on the stage

 Ah, you've seen me in the papers, I've been in the magazines

 But if I go cold I won't get sold

 I'll get put in the back in the discount rack

 Like another can of beans

 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 name

 I won't be here in another year

 If I don't stay on the charts
