Broadway is dark tonight A little bit weaker than you used to be Broadway is dark tonight See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar Waitin' for his turn to die The cowboy kills the rock star And Friday night's gone too far The dim light hides the years On all the faded girls Forgotten but not gone You drink it off your mind You talk about the world Like it's someplace that you've been You see you'd love to run home But you know you ain't got one Cause you're livin' in a world that You're best forgotten, around here Broadway is dark tonight A little bit weaker than you used to be Broadway is dark tonight See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar Waitin' for his turn to die You choke down all your anger Forget your only son You pray to statues when you sober up for fun Your anger don't impress me The world slapped in your face It always rains like hell on the loser's day parade You see you'd love to run home But you know ain't got one Cause you're livin' in a world That you're best forgotten When you're thinkin' of a joke Ain't nobody gonna listen To the one small point I know they've been missin' round here Broadway is dark tonight A little bit weaker than you used to be Broadway is dark tonight See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar Waitin' for his turn to die You see you'd love to run home But you know ain't got one Cause you're livin' in a world That you're best forgotten When you're thinkin' of a joke Ain't nobody gonna listen To the one small point I know they've been missin' round here Round here Broadway is dark tonight A little bit weaker than you used to be Broadway is dark tonight See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar Waitin' for his turn to die
