Steely Dan - What A Shame About Me слова песни


I was grinding through my day gig
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
