lyrics

The Entertainer

Casey started singing young he blew his folks away
From that day he'd begun a dream that died today
His school friends would all listen when the young Casey would sing
But Casey knew inside they were just jealous of the king.

He thought out his plan he would work in the store
he'd start a new band and play the joint next door
he blew upon the scene as a solo act
and he'd play his machine until the place was packed.

Casey took a chance he quit school and his job
Got a band called The Kings and that became his job
The Kings played the clubs and the girls all screamed
They loved his face and butt and all in between.

Spent the money he could find brought the band in to record
The engineer he cried, "please play some more"
He sold it at the shows as a little souvenir
the papers would all boast "The Entertainer Is Here".

He went on the road the girls screamed so hard
And just like he hoped they went a little far
A man was mighty angry his girlfriend has a crush
so when he got a hold of Casey, Casey fell down in his blood.
