What I Do
I say "Ray, why do girls treat you nice that way?"
He said it's not what I know
What I think or say
It's what I do
It's what I do
It's deep beneath the skin
It's what I major in
It's what I do
Yes, I come to play and I bring big soul
I could rock long before they named it
Rock and roll
It's what I do
It's what I do
I'm specially qualified
To keep them satisfied
It's what I do
You turn the lamp down low
You make them feel secure
You've got to show the girl
She's the one you adore If you want that sugar to pour
Well you bring some church but you leave no doubt As to what kind of love you love to shout about
It's what I do
It's what I do
If you can't dance by now
The Raelettes will show you how
It's what I do
You turn the lamp down low
You make them feel secure
You've got to show the girl
She's the one you adore If you want that sugar to pour
He says Don don't despair just take some time You find your bad self, you're gonna do just fine
It's what I do
It's what I do
It's not some game i play
It's in my DNA
It's what I do

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.
