I just read in Wikipedia that JFK Airport was mentioned in lyrics of songs by Barry Manilow, Paul Simon, U2 and Notorious B.I.G amongst others. Sadly, I can't identify which songs. Who can help?

U2 mentions JFK in the second line of "Angel of Harlem"

Pet Shop Boys - Home and Dry
Barry Manilow - Brooklyn Blues
Paul Simon - Paranoia Blues
not sure about Notorious B.I.G
Pop Song....No, but the opening theme of "Car 54 Where are You" mentions Idlewild...
I think Biggie mentions JFK in one of his freestyles.
Billy Joel - We Didn't Start the Fire: "JFK, blown away, what else do I have to say" was definitely in reference to the airport. We should bring him in for questioning.
