Steely Dan - Pixeleen lyrics

rate me

Our man Abu squeezes off 20 tracer rounds

And that's when she jumps the turnstile

And as she clings to the roof of the speeding train

The Double A down to Sheridan Square

Her cell phone rings

It's, like, her stupid father

Be in the door by ten—again

Pixeleen

Dream deep my three times perfect ultrateen

Pixeleen

Born in the bogs of Jersey

Trained to love and spy hard

Dropped on the streets of Roppongi

Soaked through on the floor of a noodle shop

And when Abu rams the clip in the miniglock

Up on the catwalk inside the warehouse

You whip a knife from the top of your go-go boot

With just a flash of spectacular thigh

Your pager starts to throb

It's your as-if boyfriend Randall

Better keep it real—or whatever

Pixeleen

Rave on my sleek and soulful cyberqueen

Pixeleen

Penned by a hack in the Palisades

Backed by some guys from Columbia

Shot all in digital video

For a million and change

Flash back to cool summer nights

Freddy can we cut to the chase?

In a room above your garage

Everything about me is different

Symmetrical and clean

This is what I see

Just a girl in girlie trouble

Dancing in the video with gun and tambourine

Pixeleen

Be good my three times perfect ultrateen

Pixeleen

Born on the floor of a noodle shop

Dropped in the bogs of Jersey

Shot by a guy from Columbia

Soaked through all in digital video

Girl with the sweet backstory

Pitched in a trailer in Burbank

Cast by a cool-enough yes man

Screened at a festival in Utah
