This verse is just the best: I am the entertainer, I've come to do my show
You've heard my latest record, it's been on the radio
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 was so surprised when I was singing along with "Piano Man" on the radio when I began singing a verse and a different one was being played. My parents explained to me that songs that are too long are cut short, and I thought that was insane.
