Weird Al Yankovic - It's Still Billy Joel To Me Lyrics
Whats the matter with the songs hes singinCant you tell that theyre pretty lameAfter listenin to a couple albumsWell, they all start to sound the sameSo he tried to change his musical styleHe tossed all his ballads in the circular fileThen he found the punk soundBreakin ground all aroundIts still billy joel to meWhats the matter with the tune hes writinWell, you know its gonna be a smashIts so nice when youre a big name artistDoesnt matter if it sounds like trashNow everybody thinks the new wave is superJust ask linda ronstadt or even alice cooperIts a big hit, isnt itEven if its a piece of junkIts still billy joel to meWoah, it doesnt matter what the critics say about himcause he doesnt worry how they feelWhen youre records sellin millions and its goin triple platinumYou dont worry bout your next mealcause money is no big dealMaybe he should dye his hair bright pinkAnd stick a safety pin through his cheeksThen hed really fit the new wave imageBut he couldnt sit down for weeksDont you know about the record business, honeyYou gotta be trendy if you wanna make some moneyNow everybodys sayin that he sure sounds funnyBut its still billy joel to meAll right, alfredOhI can hardly wait til his next albumWell, Ill bet its gonna be the rageBuy a ticket to his next big concertWell, I wonder what hell do on stageIt might be disco and it might be the bluesOr maybe even somethin like the b-52sJust a handclap, finger snapEven if its mindless papIts still billy joel to meEverybodys sayin that he sure sounds funnyBut its still billy joel to me
