Steely Dan lyrics : "The Nightfly"

I'm Lester the Nightfly
Hello Baton Rouge
Won't you turn your radio down

Respect the seven second delay we use

So you say there's a race

Of men in the trees
You're 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


I've 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
Patton's 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


You'd never believe it
But once there was a time
When love was in my life

I sometimes wonder
What happened to that flame
The answer's still the same

It was you, it was you
Tonight you're 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
