Well, you almost could've made it
But you didn't wanna go that far
Now your glory days have faded
You're a star at your local bar

Goodbye, Piccadilly
So long Leicester Square
Times, they're movin' on, but you ain't goin' anywhere

And they're all comin' out tonight
Everyone who's ever been nobody
And we'll all set the world to rights
For everyone who's ever been nobody
And nobody's gonna be somebody tonight

Too cool to be famous
'Cause you missed your lucky shot
Your overqualified superior status
Has left you here to rot

Goodbye to the Bowery
So long to Times Square
Times keep movin' on, but you ain't goin' anywhere

And they're all comin' out tonight
Everyone who's ever been nobody
And we'll all set the world to rights
For everyone who's ever been nobody
And nobody's gonna be somebody tonight

Goodbye to the Bowery
So long Leicester Square
Times they're movin' on and on and on, but you don't care

And they're all comin' out tonight
Everyone who's ever been nobody
And we'll all set the world to rights
For everyone who's ever been nobody
But you don't look back when your future's bright
And I don't see your name in lights
And nobody's gonna be somebody
Nobody's gonna be somebody
And nobody's gonna be somebody tonight
