It's nine o'clock on a Saturday, the regular crowd shuffles in / There's an old man sitting next to me making love to his tonic and gin / He says, 'Son, can you play me a memory?/ I'm not really sure how it goes / But it's sad and it's sweet, and I knew it complete when I wore a younger man's clothes.'
Billy Joel

Billy Joel
I look at some of the songs I wrote years ago and I can't believe I wrote such crap.
Billy Joel
This is the time to remember cause it will not last forever. These are the days to hold onto cause we won't although we'll want to.
Billy Joel
Call me a joker, call me a fool, right at this moment I'm totally cool.
Billy Joel
Ain't no rainbows shining on me, shades of gray are the colors I see.
Billy Joel
Some people stay away from the door for the chance of it opening up.
Billy Joel
Your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation.
Billy Joel
You've got yoga, I've got beer. You got overpriced, I got weird.
Billy Joel
I'm probably writing music now for the same reason as I started writing songs when I was 14 - to meet women.
Billy Joel
Streetlife serenader never sang on stages, needs no orchestration, melody comes easy, need no vast arrangement to do their harmonizing.
