Joel Billy Turnstiles Miami 2017 (Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway) I've seen the lights go out on Broadway- I saw the Empire State laid low. And life went on beyond the Palisades, They all bought bright Cadillacs- And left there long ago. We held a concert out in Brooklyn- To watch the Island bridges blow. They turned our power down, And drove us underground- But we went right on with the show... I've seen the lights go out on Broadway- I saw the ruins at my feet, You know we almost didn't notice it- We'd see it all the time on Forty-Second Street. They burned the churches up in Harlem- Like in that Spanish Civil War- The flames were everywhere, But no one really cared- It always burned up there before.... I saw the lights go out on Broadway- I watched the mighty skyline fall. The boats were waiting at the Battery, The union went on strike- They never sailed at all. They sent a carrier out from Norfolk- And picked the Yankees up for free. They said that Queens could stay, They blew the Bronx away- And sank Manhattan out to sea.... You know those lights were bright on Broadway- But that was so many years ago... Before we all lived here in Florida- Before the Mafia took over Mexico. There are not many who remember- They say a handful still survive... To tell the world about... The way the lights went out, And keep the memory alive.... ------------------------------------------------------ -+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Eric Wincentsen 267@ef.gc.maricopa.edu Glendale Community College, Glendale, Arizona "Give me ten wheels for Jesus!" -Elvis Hitler +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- |
