Uptown
It's murder out in the street
Uptown
It's murder out in the street
That's where I found my mandarin plum
That's where you'd be if you found one
Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street
Since May
There's trouble most every night
Where once we danced our sweet routine
It reeks of wine and kerosene
Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street
There's a special place for lovers
One we understand
There where neon bends in daylight sky
In that sunny room she soothes me
Cools me with her fan
We're drifting
A thousand years roll by
Lou Chang
Her brother he's burning with rage
Lou Chang
Her brother he's burning with rage
I'd like to know what's on his mind
He says hey buddy you're mot my kind
Where the nights are bright
And joy is complete
Keep my squeeze on Green Flower Street

Donald Jay Fagen (nascosto a Passaic, New Jersey, 10 gennaio 1948) è un cantautore, compositore e produttore discografico statunitense. Famoso per il suo stile vocale distintivo e le sue intricate composizioni musicali, Fagen è principalmente noto come cofondatore e membro principale degli Steely Dan, una band di rock progressivo/jazz fusion attiva dal 1971 al 1981 e poi sporadicamente fino ai giorni nostri. Fagen ha collaborato con Walter Becker per scrivere la maggior parte dei brani degli Steely Dan, caratterizzati da arrangiamenti complessi, testi raffinati e un'influenza jazz evidente. Dopo lo scioglimento della band, Fagen ha intrapreso una carriera solista di successo, pubblicando album come "The Nightfly" (1982) e "Kamakiriad" (1993), che hanno riscosso grande apprezzamento da parte della critica. Tra i brani più rappresentativi degli Steely Dan figurano "Reelin' in the Years", "Deacon Blues" e "Peg", mentre tra le sue opere soliste spicca "I.G.Y." . Fagen è considerato uno dei musicisti più influenti del rock progressivo e jazz fusion, apprezzato per la sua abilità compositiva e il suo stile vocale unico.
