You know those lights were bright on Broadway
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.

Additional quotes by Billy Joel

It seems such a waste of time
If that's what it's all about
If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good;
You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood.
It's alright, it's alright;
Sometimes that's what it takes.
You're only human, you're allowed to make your share of mistakes.

So you play your albums and you smoke your pot
And you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot
Oh, but still you're aching for the things you haven't got,
What went wrong?
And if you can't understand why your world is so dead
And why you've got to keep in style and feed your head
Well, you're twenty one and still you mother makes your bed
And that's too long.
