was a piano player in a bar. People came just to
hear him play. But one night, a
lady
asked him to sing a song.
“
I don't sing.
”
said the man.
“
I'm tired of listening to the piano. I
want the player to sing!
“
Hey, friend! If you want to get paid,

But the lady told the
waiter,

across the room,
So he did.
He had never sung in public before. Now he was
singing for the very first time!
Nobody
had ever heard the song Mona Lisa sung so

talent(
天赋
) that he was

life as a
no-name piano player in a
no-name bar. But once he found, by accident, that
he could sing well,
