Steely Dan Countdown To Ecstasy My Old School I remember the thirty five sweet goodbyes When you put me on the Wolverine up in Annandale It was still September when your daddy was quite surprised To find you with the working girls in the county jail I was smoking with the boys upstairs When I heard about the whole affair I said "Oh no William and Mary won't do" Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never going back to my old school Oleander growing outside her door Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale I can't stand her doing what she did before Living like a gypsy queen in a fairy tale Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said "Oh no Guadalajara won't do" Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never going back to my old school [Solos] California tumbles into the sea That'll be the day I go back to Annandale Tried to warn her about Chino and Buddy Gee But I can't seem to get to you through the US mail Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said "Oh no Guadalajara won't do" Well I did not think the girl could be so cruel And I'm never going back to my old school [Solos to fade] |
