Deaf genie

A man walks into a bar with a paper bag. He sits down and places the bag on the counter. The bartender walks up and asks: “So whadda ya got in the bag?”
The man reaches into the bag and pulls out a little man, about one foot high, and he sets him on the counter. He reaches back into the bag time pulls out a small piano and a tiny piano bench, setting them on the counter as well. The little man sits down at the piano and starts playing a gorgeous piece by Mozart. Now the bartender is extremely curious about this odd sight, so he asks the man: “Where the hell’d ya get that?”
The man responded by reaching into the paper bag, but this time he pulls out a magic lamp.
He hands it to the bartender and says: “Here. Rub it.”
So the bartender rubs the lamp, and suddenly there’s a gust of smoke, then a beautiful genie is standing before him.
“I will grant you one wish,” she says.
The bartender gets excited by having a wish from a real genie. He had always dreamed about it, but now it’s actually happening. So without even hesitating, he says:
“I want a million bucks.”
So the genie nods her head and disappears in another gust of smoke. A few moments later, a duck walks into the bar. It is soon followed by another duck, then another. Pretty soon, the entire bar is filled with ducks. The bartender turns to the man and says:
“Y’know, I think your genie’s a little deaf. I asked for a million BUCKS, not a million DUCKS.”
To this the man responded:

“No shit! Do you really think, for just one moment, that I would have ever wished for a TWELVE INCH PIANIST?!!”
