Billy Joel - Piano Man
Piano Man
Billy Joel
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin
それは或る土曜の九時の事だ
お馴染みの連中がどやどやと入って来る
その中にジントニックを楽しみながら僕の隣の席を占めている老人がいる

He says, "Son can you play me a memory
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
And I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
彼は言う、「息子よ、君は僕にあの懐しい曲を弾けるだろうか
それがどんな節回しか、実は自信がない
ともかくそれは切なくて、もうそれはしっとりとしているんだが、僕がもっと若いもんの身形をしていた頃には、非の打ちどころがないと思っていた

Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
一つ歌を歌ってくれ、君はピアノ弾きだもの
一つ歌を歌ってくれ、今夜は
まあ僕達はすっかりメロディに酔い痴れ
何時か君は僕達を満ち足りた気分にしていった

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
今やカウンタ一のジョンも僕の友人の一人
彼は僕に気前よく飲み物を奢る
彼は冗談一つ言うにしても君の煙草に火を点けるにしても素早い
ところが彼にはもっといたい場所がどこかにある

He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me"
As a smile ran away from his face
"Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
彼は言う、「ビル、確かにこれが僕を葬ろうとしていると思う。」笑みが彼の顔から急いで走り去ると、「いや、僕は間違いなく映画スタ一になれるだろう。もし僕がここから抜け出せさえしたら。」

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinking alone
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
To forget about life for a while
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 doing here?"
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
