    "Broadway" Lyrics:
    Broadway's dark tonight
    A little bit weaker than you used to be
    Broadway's 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
    Cuz you're livin' in a world that you're best forgotten, around here
    Broadway's dark tonight
    A little bit weaker than you used to be
    Broadway's 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 you ain't got one
    Cuz you're livin' in a world that you're best forgotten
    When you're thinkin' you're a joke and nobody's gonna listen
    To the one small point I know they've been missing around here
    Broadway's dark tonight
    A little bit weaker than you used to be
    Broadway's 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 you ain't got one
    Cuz you're livin' in a world that you're best forgotten
    When you're thinkin' you're a joke and nobody's gonna listen
    To the one small point I know they've been missing around here
    Round here, yeah
    Broadway's dark tonight
    A little bit weaker than you used to be
    Broadway's dark tonight
    See the young man sittin' in the old man's bar
    Waitin' for his turn to die

    I remember being 23 and hearing this song in a hole in the wall bar surrounded by people 20 to 40 years older than me and that line about the young man sitting in the old man's bar waiting for his time to die really resonated with me.

    • @XxTaiMTxX
      @XxTaiMTxX 2 роки тому +8

      I had a double resonation with it. When I was a young child, the line "You talk about the world like it's some place that you've been" was something I frequently thought about the authority figures in my life. The people who proclaimed to know things that they knew nothing about.
      Then, when I became an adult and put away my childishness, the second resonation came when I realized that "We're all just children forever, talking about the world like it's someplace that we've been."
      I suppose that's the magic of the Goo Goo Dolls songs. They mean something different at 16 than they do at 24. They mean something different at 18 than they do at 30.
      You talk about the world like it's someplace that you've been.

    Honestly a great band a lot better than what’s popular today it’s like soothing and venting at the same time, true art, beautiful relatable expression. I hope I can learn all I can from them, be inspired and take what they’ve taught and spin it in a similar direction but one that perfectly expresses me in my own art. Some of the best things in life aren’t always the most popular including this band, but I’m really a big fan. They’re still pretty popular compared to many others, I just don’t understand why they’re not even more popular. I’d rather listen to this than 90% of the stuff on the radio.

    And Friday night's gone too far
    The dim light hides the years on all the faded girls

    Like it's someplace that you've been

    Great song by the best group in music today. Love these guys. Lucky enough to see them live just outsided of Sacramento. "Broadway" is a Fantastic sound of the 90's that could have been written in the 60's or 70's about a returning Viet Nam Veteran. Think about River Phoenix's character in the movie "Dog Fight". That's the film and the time period I think about when I hear "Broadway".

    This was the gem track from Dizzy Up the Girl, well in my opinion anyway. There's so much being said in this song, and the video itself is filled with substance and prolific meaning. Goo Goo Dolls are true artists, 'Name' was proof of that, although 'Iris' and 'Slide' gave 'em a huge break and the recognition they truly deserved. They're simply classic, and quite underrated despite their considerate success. Goo's have always been true to their music, that's what I love most about them.
