Here At The Western World
HERE AT THE WESTERN WORLD (1976)
Down at the Lido they welcome youBACK TO THE TOP | BACK TO LYRICS INDEX
With sausage and beer
Klaus and The Rooster have been there too
But lately he spends his time here
Hangin' with the Mayor and all his friends
And nobody cares
Where the sailor shuts out the sunrise
Blacked out on the stairs
CHORUS:
Knock twice, rap with your cane
Feels nice, you're out of the rain
We got your skinny girl
Here at the Western World
Ruthie will give you the silver key
To open the red door
Lay down your Jackson and you will see
The sweetness you've been cryin' for
In the night you hide from the madman
You're longing to be
But it all comes out on the inside
Eventually
CHORUS
In the night you hide from the madman
You're longing to be
But it all comes out on the inside
Eventually
CHORUS
FM (1978)
Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wineBACK TO THE TOP | BACK TO LYRICS INDEX
Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time
The girls don't seem to care what's on
As long as it plays till dawn
Nothin' but blues and Elvis
And somebody else's favorite song
Give her some funked up music, she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right
FM - no static at all
Give her some funked up music she treats you nice
Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice
The girls don't seem to care tonight
As long as the mood is right
FM - no static at all
THE STEELY DAN SHOW (2000)
Boys and GirlsBACK TO THE TOP | BACK TO LYRICS INDEX
They come from all around
From dear old Stockholm
To Copenhagen town
Forget their troubles
In tasty riddum n' rime
So here you are
And now it's party time
Wrap your mind
Around this sound
And let the goodness ripple down
Goodbye to Lonely Street
You're in the Catbird Seat
At THE STEELY DAN SHOW
If you got backpacks
And pointy little shoes
Late-model roadsters
Or just those walkin' blues
A case of heartache
That you're too numb to fight
A secret sorrow
That keeps you up all night
Well don't you fret
It's not your fault
Just lay it all on Don and Walt
Just trip out on these hits
The groove that never quits
At THE STEELY DAN SHOW
So buy a program
And/or a hat
You don't pass up a deal like that
It's only promo stuff
But hey it's good enough
