Lyrics

I am I the only one who's noted a wistful tone of late? Anyway, at 2:45 this is more for the sake of archival completeness and proper tribute to Messrs. Fagen and Becker.


I’ll take that crowded beltway
Plug for WindowNation
Head back to DC when I’m done

You’ve heard my tired refrains
Love ice cream, please send more!
I bet you’ve heard that one before

Well I’ve worn out my welcome in the past
Still I am quite full of bombast
But I fear my final hours are coming fast, really fast.

I weekend in Rehoboth
Get treated at the Palm
You must admit this life is charmed

I missed that big Post close down
Lest I became enraged
But then I feel like that most days

Well the best years I’ve known are surely past
Who knows how long this gig may last?
And it sure seems my final hours are coming fast, really fast.


After Homer >> Joyce >> Steely Dan's "Home At Last"

    Very well done. I am with you on hearing a more nostalgic lean recently, and this is perfect for that idea.

    "But then I feel like that most days" Great stuff Brad. We are now 43% thru Aja. If completists we be, then we've still got some work to do!
