pianist n

pianist n
One day, Paco entered the local tavern for a drink. He couldn't help but notice that the bartender had hired a little man - he must have been a foot tall - to play the piano. "Where did he come from?" asked Paco. The bartender replied, "There's a genie out back. Go check it out." Behind the bar, Paco found a lamp, which he immediately rubbed to expel the genie. "You can have one wish," said the genie. "I want a million bucks!" shouted Paco. Suddenly, a barrage of ducks flew down from the sky. Terrified, Paco ran back into the bar and started yelling at the bartender. "That crazy genie is hard of hearing!" The bartender responded, "Of course he is. Do you really think that I would have wished for a twelve-inch pianist?"
