Steely Dan a Day

Godwhacker

“Everything Must Go,” Steely Dan’s ninth album.

“Yes we are the GodWhackers 
Who rip and chop and slice 
For crimes beyond imagining 
It’s time to pay the price 
You better step back son 
Give the man some whackin’ space 
You know this might get messy 
GodWhacker’s on the case”

Blues Beach

“Everything Must Go,” Steely Dan’s ninth album.

“I was scrapin’ bottom 
Gropin’ in the dark 
It takes a crusty punk to really beat 
The mean streets of Medicine Park”

Things I Miss the Most

“Everything Must Go,” Steely Dan’s ninth album.

“I’m building the Andrea Doria out of balsa wood”

The Last Mall

“Everything Must Go,” Steely Dan’s ninth album.

“You’ll need the tools for survival 
And the medicine for the blues 
Sweet treats and surprises 
For the little buckaroos”

Negative Girl

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“Another negative girl 
At the edge of the frame 
Exhausting and luscious 
The original classic thing - more of the same”

Cousin Dupree

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“Well we used to play 
When we were three 
How about a kiss for your cousin Dupree”

Jack of Speed

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“You maybe got lucky for a few good years 
But there’s no way back from there to here”

Almost Gothic

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“I’m so excited I can barely cope 
I’m sizzling like an isotope 
I’m on fire so cut me some slack”

Janie Runaway

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“Let’s plan a weekend alone together 
Drive out to Binky’s place 
The sugar shack in Pennsylvania 
Or would that be a federal case?”

Two Against Nature

“Two Against Nature,” Steely Dan’s eighth album.

“Two against nature don’t you know 
Who’s gonna grok the shape of things to go”
