A dog can play the piano

A dog can play the piano
会弹钢琴的狗

A guy walks into a bar with a small dog. The bartender says, "Get out of here with that dog!
The guy says, "But this isn't just any dog... this dog can play the piano!"  The bartender replies, "Well, if he can play that piano, you both can stay... and have a drink on the house!"  So the guy sits the dog on the piano stool, and the dog starts playing. Ragtime¹, Mozart... and the bartender and patrons are enjoying the music.  Suddenly a bigger dog runs in, grabs the small dog by the scruff of the neck, and drags him out. The bartender asks the guy, "What was that all about?"  The guy replies, "Oh, that was his mother. She wanted him to be a doctor."

一个人带着他的狗走进一家酒吧。 酒吧服务生对他说，“这里不能带狗进来，请离开吧!” 那个人对服务生说，“这可不是一般的狗，它可是会弹钢琴的!” 服务生回答说，“呃， 如果它真的能弹钢琴，你们可以免费在这喝上一杯!” 那个人把狗放到了弹钢琴坐的凳子上面，狗就开始了演奏，先是拉格泰姆音乐、接着弹莫扎特还有其它的… …服务生和顾客们都非常欣赏它的弹奏。 突然，一只体型更大的狗跑了进来 ，一把抓住小狗的脖子就把它拽出去了。 酒吧服务生问那个人，“那是怎么回事？” 那人回答 ，“噢，那是它妈妈。 她不想它儿子玩音乐，而是做一名医生。”
