I was grinding through my day gig
Stackin cutouts at the strand
When in walks franny from nyu
We were quite an item back then
We talked about her films and shows and cds
And I dont know what else
She said, yeah, hollywoods been good to me
But tell me - how about yourself
Chorus:
Im still working on that novel
But Im just about to quit
cause Im worrying about the future now
Or maybe this is it
Its not all that I thought it would be
What a shame about me
She said, talk to me, do you ever see
Anybody else from our old crew
Bobby dakine won the bunsen prize
Now hes coming out with something new
Alan owns a chain of steamer heavens
And barry is the software king
And somebody told me in the early 80s
You were gonna be the next big thing
Chorus:
Well now that was just a rumor
But I guess Im doin fine
Three weeks out of the rehab
Living one day at a time
Sneaking up on the new century
What a shame about me
What a shame about me
Im thinking of a major jane street sunrise
And the goddess on the fire escape was you
We both ran out of small talk
The connection seemed to go dead
I was about to say, hey, have a nice life
When she touched my hand and said:
You know I just had this great idea
This could be very cool
Why dont we grab a cab to my hotel
And make believe were back at our old school
Chorus:
I said babe you look delicious
And youre standing very close
But like this is lower broadway
And youre talking to a ghost
Take a good look its easy to see
What a shame about me
What a shame about me
Steely Dan is an American musical group formed in New York City in 1972, known for its sophisticated and distinctive sound, a fusion of jazz, rock, funk, rhythm and blues, and pop. Founding members Donald Fagen and Walter Becker have always maintained a high level of attention to music production, characterized by complex arrangements and impeccably defined sound. Their often introspective music, rich in cultural references, anticipated many musical trends of the 1980s. Among their most representative songs are "Reelin' in the Years", "Deacon Blues" and "Peg". Steely Dan released ten studio albums between 1972 and 1980, achieving significant critical and commercial success. After a hiatus of over twenty years, the band reunited in 2000 for new recordings and tours, demonstrating their enduring ability to captivate a wide and diverse audience.
