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
-Billy Joel
I don’t like Billy Joel’s political views, BUT he writes songs with lyrics that actually say something.
Today music is just a bass sounding boom, boom, boom, and some guy talking into the mic about how big his pecker is because he has a gun.
