Of course that’s why Weird Al made a parody of Piano Man summarizing the first Toby Maguire Spider-Man movie they’re nearly identical

Alternative theory I read somewhere: Piano Man is playing in a gay bar, but doesn't realize it. Think about it: Davey, who's still in the navy, Tom at the Bar who wants to be an actor ...

The waitress who was practicing politics was his GF and future (first) wife. But, I suppose it could have been a gay bar.

Scatman was bitten by radioactive scat?

True... The opening scat is actually not scat at all, its him having a psychotic episode as the scat takea over his body.

But it's what made him so skilled That intro to "Scatman" is him gurgling with a load of shit in his mouth tryna escape it

His greatest illness was his greatest weapon. Thats why he didnt have many songs... The scat took him early... Also whilst we are at it whatever happened to Cotten Eye Joe? Did we ever work out where he came from and where did he go?

Don’t laugh, this sort of thing does happen. Always tragic when it does. In fact you’re more likely to be bitten by a piano that a shark plushi.
