honestly old

ok, so today i quoted a steely dan song.....erroniously...midnight cruiser......that i have long thought referred to thelonious monk.....i thought the lyrics began with thelonius my old friend.....ha!...the lyrcis are as follows...

Felonius my old friend
Step on in and let me shake your hand
So glad that you're here again
For one more time
Let your madness run with mine
Streets still unseen we'll find somehow
No time is better than now

CHORUS:
Tell me where are you driving
Midnight cruiser
Where is your bounty
Of fortune and fame
I am another
Gentlemen loser
Drive me to Harlem
Or somewhere the same

The world that we used to know
People tell me it don't turn no more
The places we used to go
Familiar faces that ain't smilin' like before
The time of our time has come and gone
I fear we been waiting too long

felonius/thelonius......i am getting to be so old....at least where oldness matters............
