Steely Dan lyrics : "Gaslighting Abbie"

One plush summer you come to me ripe and ready
And bad through and through
With that deep mystical soul synergy pumping steady

Between me and you
Lovin' all the beautiful work we've done, cara mia
And it's barely July

If we keep on boppin' until Labor Day
Li'l miz Abbie - bye bye


What will it be - some soothing herb tea?
That might be just the thing
Let's say we spike it with Deludin

Or else - maybe tonight a hand of solitaire

CHORUS:

Flame is the game
The game we call gaslighting Abbie
It's a luscious invention for three

One summer by the sea

With the long weekend that's comin' up fast

Let's get busy
There's just too much to do
That black mini looks just like the one she's been missin'

Feels good on you
There's a few items we need in town - allez-vous girl
There's no time to waste

Such as fresh cable and fifteen watt bulbs
Couple dozen - it's a big old place
Let's keep it light - we'll do a fright night

With blood and everything
Some punky laughter from the kitchen
And then - a nice relaxing hand of solitaire


CHORUS


You can choose the music
I'll set up my gear
Later on we'll chill and watch the fireworks from here


How can you knock this mighty spitelock
Check out the work itself

A mix of elegance and function
That's right - a tweak or two and then she's out of here


CHORUS
