Oh, those are mild.

Listen to the lyrics of Glamour Profession.

Then there's Kid Charlemagne.

Both are musical extravaganzas. Neither can I enjoy with my teenage son.

I was referring to the Steely Dan songs we CAN listen to with our children. As you well know, some of their lyrics are for adults only, and that’s questionable as well. :^)

I always knew Becker and Fagan were perfectionists, but this little nugget of trivia is mind blowing:

Becker and Fagen used at least 42 different studio musicians, 11 engineers, and took over a year to record the tracks that resulted in 1980's Gaucho — an album that contains only seven songs.

"Kids if you want some fun....Mr LaPage is your man...."

Also I think "Show Biz Kids" was the first song I'm aware of with an F-bomb in it.
