Disc 1

Tell Her About It

Billy Joel

3:52

Listen boy
Don't want to see you let a good thing
Slip away

You know I don't like watching
Anybody make the same mistakes
I made

She's a real nice girl
And she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do

Listen boy
I'm sure that you think you got it all
Under control

You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul

You're a big boy now
You'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing
She ought to know

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept
That you're for real

Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Listen boy
It's not automatically a certain guarantee
To insure yourself
You've got to provide communication constantly

When you love someone
You're always insecure
And there's only one good way
To reassure

Tell her about it
Let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you
Tell her you wish you were there

Tell her about it
Every day before you leave
Pay her some attention
Give her something to believe

Cause now and then
She'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken
For so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone

Listen boy
It's good information from a man
Who's made mistakes

Just a word or two that she gets from you
Could be the difference that it makes

She's a trusting soul
She's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you
What you should do

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason
To accept that you're for real

Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Tell her about it
Tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it
The girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it
Before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it
You know the girl don't want
To wait--you got to
Tell her about it

Listen boy
Don't want to see you let a good thing
Slip away

You know I don't like watching
Anybody make the same mistakes
I made

She's a real nice girl
And she's always there for you
But a nice girl wouldn't tell you what you should do

Listen boy
I'm sure that you think you got it all
Under control

You don't want somebody telling you
The way to stay in someone's soul

You're a big boy now
You'll never let her go
But that's just the kind of thing
She ought to know

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel
Give her every reason to accept
That you're for real

Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Listen boy
It's not automatically a certain guarantee
To insure yourself
You've got to provide communication constantly

When you love someone
You're always insecure
And there's only one good way
To reassure

Tell her about it
Let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you
Tell her you wish you were there

Tell her about it
Every day before you leave
Pay her some attention
Give her something to believe

Cause now and then
She'll get to worrying
Just because you haven't spoken
For so long
Though you may not have done anything
Will that be a consolation when she's gone

She's put her trust in you
But a girl like that won't tell you
What you should do

Tell her about it
Tell her everything you feel

To accept that you're for real

Tell her about it
Tell her all your crazy dreams
Let her know you need her
Let her know how much she means

Tell her about it
Tell her how you feel right now
Tell her about it
The girl don't want to wait too long
You got to tell her about it
Tell her now and you won't go wrong
You got to tell her about it
Before it gets too late
You got to tell her about it
You know the girl don't want
To wait--you got to
Tell her about it

Uptown Girl

Billy Joel

3:16

Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she never had a backstreet guy
I bet her mama never told her why

I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am

And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind

She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an uptown girl

You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice

Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win

And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine

She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With and uptown girl

She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am

Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl

Don't Ask Me Why

Billy Joel

2:57

All the waiters in you grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink
Every dog must have his everyday
Every drunk must have his drink
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

All your life you had to stand in line
Still you're standing on your feet
All your choices made you change your mind
Now your calendar's complete
Don't wait for answers
Just take your chances
Don't ask me why

You can say the human heart is only make believe
And I am only fighting fire with fire
But you are still a victim
of the accidents you leave
As sure as I'm a victim of desire

All the servants in your new hotel
Throw their roses at your feet
Fool them all but baby I can tell
You're no stranger to the street
Don't ask for favors
Don't talk to strangers
Don't ask me why

Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away
You can kill them in the classic style
Now you, "parlez vous francais"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask me why
Don't ask me why

Piano Man

Billy Joel

4:37

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
지금은 토요일 밤 9시에요
The regular crowd shuffles in
사람들은 하나,둘씩 모여들고
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
한 노인이 진토닉을 홀짝홀짝 마시며
He says,
"Son, can you play me a melody?
말하기를,
"이봐 내게 옛 추억의 노래를 들려주겠나?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet
어떻게 부르는지 잘 모르지만
슬프고 달콤했다네
and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"
물론 젊었을 땐 그 노랠 전부 알았었지

Sing us a song, you're the piano man
노래 한 곡 불러줘요 당신은 피아노맨이니까
Sing us a song tonight
오늘밤 우리한테 노래 한곡 불러줘요
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
우린 모두 노래가 듣고 싶어요
And you've got us feelin' alright
당신은 우릴 기분 좋게 해주잖아요

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
바에 있는 존은 내 친구죠
He gets me my drinks for free
나한테 공짜로 술을 한잔 갖다 줬어요.
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
그는 농담도 잘 받아들이고 알아서 담배불도 붙여주죠.
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
하지만 그는 여기가 아닌 다른 곳에 있어야 했어요
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
"여기서 정말 미칠 것 같애" 그가 이렇게 말할 때
As the smile ran away from his face
그의 얼굴에선 미소가 사라졌어요
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
"여기서 벗어날 수만 있다면
난 분명히 영화배우가 될 수 있었을텐데..."

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
그리고, 폴은 진짜 지체 높은소설가에요
Who never had time for a wife
그는 부인과 같이 지내는 시간이 별로 없었고,
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy
지금 데이비와 얘길 하고 있어요 데이비는 아직 해군이고
And probably will be for life
아마 평생 그럴지도 모르죠

And the waitress is practicing politics
그리고 웨이트리스는 사업가가 조금씩 술에 취하자,
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
돈을 울궈 내려고 하는군요

Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
맞아요, 모두들 함께
외로움이라고들 부르는 술을 마시고 있어요
But it's better than drinkin' alone
하지만, 혼자 마시는 것보단 그게 낫죠.

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
토요일 치곤 손님이 많군요
And the manager gives me a smile
매니저가 날 보고 미소를 짓는군요
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
손님들이 날 보러 여기에 온다는걸 알고 있기 때문이죠.
To forget about life for a while
잠시라도 삶을 잊기 위해서.
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
피아노 소리는 마치 축제 분위기 같고,
And the microphone smells like a beer
마이크는 맥주 냄새가 나요.
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
사람들은 바에 앉아 내 항아리에 돈을 넣어줘요
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"
그리고 말하죠. "이봐, 당신 여기서 뭐하고 있는거야?"

Sing us a song, you're the piano man 
노래 한 곡 불러줘요 당신은 피아노맨이니까
Sing us a song tonight 
오늘밤 우리한테 노래 한곡 불러줘요 
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody

New York State Of Mind

Billy Joel

6:03

Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday
from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach
Or to Hollywood
But I'm talking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York state of mind

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and
their limousines
Been high in the
Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy
living day by day
Out of touch
with the rhythm and blues
But now I need
a little give and take
The New York Times
The Daily News

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me
cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's
Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy
living day by day
Out of touch with the
rhythm and blues
But now I need
a little give and take
The New York Times
The Daily News

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me
Cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's
Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

I'm just taking a
Greyhound on the
Hudson River Line

Cause I'm in a

New York state of mind

The River Of Dreams

Billy Joel

4:06

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
밤이 깊었고 꿈길을 걸었어
From the mountains of faith
To a river so deep
진실의 산에서 부터
강 깊숙한 곳까지

I must be looking for something
Something sacred I lost
신성을 잃어버렸어
But the river is wide
그러나 강은 넓기만 하지
And it's too hard to cross
건너기가 너무 힘들어

And even though I know the river is wide
강이 넓긴 하지만
I walk down every evening
and I stand on the shore
밤 마다 강가를 걸어
And try to cross to the opposite side
반대쪽 강가로 갈까해
So I can finally find out
what I've been looking for
그래서 난 기필코 찾아내고 말거야

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
밤이 깊었고 꿈길을 걸었어
From the mountains of faith
To a river so deep
진실의 산에서 부터
강 깊숙한 곳까지

And I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
난 나의 영혼을 찾고 있었지
Something I would never lose
Something somebody stole
내가 잃어 버린게 아닌
누군가 앗아간 그 무엇을

I don't know why I go walking at night
이 밤에 내가 뭐하는 짓인지...
But now I'm tired
and I don't want to walk anymore
이젠 지쳐서 걷고 싶지 않아요
I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life
Until I find what it is
that I've been looking for
내가 찾고 있던 그것이 무엇이었는지
한 평생 동안 알아보고 싶진 않은데

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
밤이 깊었고 꿈길을 걸었어
Through the jungle of doubt
To a river so deep
의혹의 밀림을 지나
저 깊은 강으로

I know I'm searching for something
Something so undefined
나는 무엇인가를 찾고 있지요
That it can only be seen
By the eyes of the blind
맹인의 눈으로만 볼 수 있는
불확실한 그 무엇을요

In the middle of the night
I'm not sure about a life after this
한 밤이 되면 이 세상 다음의
삶에 대해선 난 알수 없지
God knows I've never been a spiritual man
신도 내가 경건하지 않다는건 아시지
Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river
That runs to the promised land
난 불로 세례를 받은 채 약속된 땅으로
흘러가는 강물을 해쳐 갑니다.

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
밤이 깊었고 꿈길을 걸었어
Through the desert of truth
To the river so deep
진실의 사막을 건너
저 깊은 강을 향하여

We all end in the ocean
우리는 큰 바다에서 끝을 맺고
We all start in the streams
작은 개울에서 시작하죠
We're all carried along
By the river of dreams
우린 꿈의 강을 따라 흘러가겠죠

In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
밤이 깊었고 꿈길을 걸었어
From the mountains of faith
To a river so deep
진실의 산에서 부터 
강 깊숙한 곳까지

It's Still Rock And Roll To Me

Billy Joel

2:56

What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing Can't you tell that your tie's too wide Maybe I should buy some old tab collarsWelcome back to the age of jive Where have you been hidin' out lately, honeyYou can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me What's the matter with the car I'm drivingCan't you tell that it's out of styleShould I get a set of while wall tires Are you gonna cruise the miracle mileNowadays you can't be too sentimental Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk It's still rock and roll to me Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers Cause it's always been the same old scene. There's a new band in town But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazineAimed at your average teen How about a pair of pink sidewinders And a bright orange pair of pants You could really be a Beau Brummel baby If you just give it half a chance. Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers, You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways It's still rock and roll to me What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing Don't you know that they're out of touch Should I try to be a straight `A' studentIf you are then you think too much Don't you know about the new fashion honey All you need are looks and a whole lotta money It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways It's still rock and roll to me Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me-

No, we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it

But we tried to fight it

I can't take it anymore

We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
But when we are gone
It will still burn on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on

We didn't start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world's been turning
We didn't start the fire
No, we didn't light it
But we tried to fight it
