Steely Dan - Slang of Ages lyrics

Your rating:


Let me put it this way doll

And I know it's getting late

I can tell from the planes of your face

That you're from out of state

But here in the Willows now here's the deal

Tomorrow's for squares—tonight's for real



Drop me off in Groovetime

Do I hear the Slang of Ages

Show me how it's done



Now did you say you were from the Netherlands

Or was that “Netherworld”?

If you grew up in Amsterdam

Then I'm the Duke of Earl

These tabs look iffy—you say they're good

Let's roll with the homeys—knock on wood



Drop me off in Groovetime

Soothe me with the slang of ages

Show me where I turn



You are part of the Dreaming

The end of my life so far?

Or something halfway in between

You ought to know

Hey—where'd you go?



Damn—she skipped dimensions

Was it something that I said?

Or something I was thinking 

When she opened up my head?

Let me make it right baby—never mind how

There's a crazy little place I know called “Be There Now”



Drop me off in Groovetime

Do I hear the Slang of Ages

Show me how it's done

Drop me off in Groovetime

Soothe me with the Slang of Ages

This is where I turn
