Waterbird Board: Space four

April 2, 2006 09:54 PM

And the piano sounds like a carnival!
And the microphone smells like a beer.
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"

What Billy Joel waterbird would be complete without this song?!? Like the owner of the Alexa, he's got to pay the bills: fortunately he's got a lot of lonely bar patrons to "put bread in my jar" – possibly so he can buy pearls for a girlfriend like Virginia in "Only the Good Die Young." Like "Modern Woman," we are again talking about music within a song, and "Man, what are you doin' here?" sounds like a good question to ask the people who "go right on with the show" in "Miami 2017."
