The Piano

The Piano

 

I could have played the piano

As I have the music gene

The keys I could have tickled

Had I practiced anything

 

They would have given me tips

When I played their tunes

With nostalgia quite a bit

And songs that they could croon

 

They would have had their tea

And smoked their cigarettes

A waitress would have cleaned

And straightened up their little mess

 

I would have recorded an album

Had I learned to play

I would have played my songs

And sang them every day

 

I would have had a fan club

And they would make me go

The girls would be adoring

And my name they all would know

 

If I just would’ve listened

And practiced every day

I would have been a musician

And I would surely play
