Almost Gothic

Steely Dan

I'm working on gospel time these days



(The summer this could be the cool part of the summer)




The sloe eyed creature in the reckless room she's so severe



A wise child walks right out of here




I'm so excited I can barely cope



I'm sizzling like an isotope



I'm on fire so cut me some slack




CHORUS:



First she's way gone then she comes back



She's all business then she's ready to play



She's almost gothic in a natural way




This house of desire is built foursquare



(The city - the cleanest kitten in the city)




When she speaks it's like the slickest song I ever heard



I'm hanging on her every word



As if I'm not already blazed enough



She hits me with the cryptic stuff



That's her style - to jerk me around




CHORUS:



First she's all feel then she cools down



She's pure science with a splash of black cat



She's almost gothic and I like it like that




This dark place so thrilling and new



It's kind of like the opposite of an aerial view



Unless I'm totally wrong



I hear her rap and brother it's strong




I'm pretty sure that what she's telling me is mostly lies



But I just stand there hypnotized




I'll just have to make it work somehow



I'm in the amen corner now



It's called love - I spell L -U- V




CHORUS:



First she's all buzz then she's noise-free



She's bubbling over then there's nothing to say



She's almost gothic in a natural way




She's old school then she's like young



Little Eva meets the Bleecker Street brat



She's almost gothic but it's
