Steely Dan - What A Shame About Me songtekst

Je score:

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 don't know what else
 She said  yeah  Hollywood's been good to me
 But tell me   how about yourself

 CHORUS:
 I'm still working on that novel
 But I'm just about to quit
 'Cause I'm worrying about the future now
 Or maybe this is it
 It's 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 he's 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 80's
 You were gonna be the Next Big Thing

 CHORUS:
 Well now that was just a rumor
 But I guess I'm 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
 I'm 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 don't we grab a cab to my hotel
 And make believe we're back at our old school

 CHORUS:
 I said babe you look delicious
 And you're standing very close
 But like this is Lower Broadway
 And you're talking to a ghost
 Take a good look it's easy to see
 What a shame about me
 What a shame about me
