Miami 2017 (Seen The Lights Go Out On Broadway)
In the style of
Lyrics
seen the lights
go out on broadway
i saw
the empire state
laid low
and life went on
beyond the palisades
they all
bought cadillacs
and left there
long ago
they 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
oh oh
oh oh
oh oh oh oh
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 seen 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
oh oh
oh oh
oh oh oh oh
i've seen 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 at sea
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
