I'm The Entertainer (Scott Joplin)

About this track
[Verse 1] Some call me a hustler, some call me a freak But I’ve been chasing dollars every hour of the week Got to calm down, don't look down Running in a rat race, coping with your attitude Till I find a wealthy sponsor, someone to cling onto Then I’ll calm down, before I breakdown [Chorus] You’ve got diamonds on your plate While I’m hopping over the gate 'Cause I know I’m selling my grace I’m the Entertainer! Every moment is a possibility I live on the edge, you see? You’ve got diamonds on your plate I’m the Entertainer! [Verse 2] Die for high-end fashion, and starve to pay the debt Blackout in the summer, and gamble what is left My rich friends are so bored now, refuse to share the wealth We all enjoy the sadness, ruining our mental health [Chorus] You’ve got diamonds on your plate While I’m hopping over the gate 'Cause I know I’m selling my grace I’m the Entertainer! [Bridge] You look sad and lonely, come and spend some cash on me I got swagger, I got juice, tell me what you wanna be Have you ever smoked on a beach? Stolen liquor from a store? Broken all the rules? Throw a little cash if you think you’re bold enough Throw a little cash if you think you’re bold enough I’m the Entertainer, entertainer… [Outro] Get up and see the hunger in my eyes.
