[Intro]
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 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
[INTERLUDE x2]
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
[INTERLUDE x2]
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
[INTERLUDE x2]
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
