The Nightfly — текст песни (Steely Dan)

Im lester the nightfly

Hello baton rouge

Wont you turn your radio down

Respect the seven second delay we use



So you say theres a race

Of men in the trees

Youre for tough legislation

Thanks for calling

I wait all night for calls like these



An independent station

Wjaz

With jazz and conversation

From the foot of mt. belzoni

Sweet music

Tonight the night is mine

Late line til the sun comes through the skylight



Ive got plenty of java

And chesterfield kings

But I feel like crying

I wish I had a heart like ice

Heart like ice



If you want your honey

To look super swell

You must spring for that little blue jar

Pattons kiss and tell

Kiss and tell



An independent station

Wjaz

With jazz and conversation

From the foot of mt. belzoni

Sweet music

Tonight the night is mine

Late line til the sun comes through the skylight



Youd never believe it

But once there was a time

When love was in my life

I sometimes wonder

What happened to that flame

The answers still the same

It was you, it was you

Tonight youre still on my mind



An independent station

Wjaz

With jazz and conversation

From the foot of mt. belzoni

Sweet music

Tonight the night is mine

Late line til the sun comes through the skylight
