( /start/ In my best/worst FM Voice) I'd like to shout out a goooooood Saturday morning to everybody on the beach in Bloggville. We'll have news coming up at the top of the hour, but meanwhile I'd like to spin another tune from the latest from Steely Dan, this one's titled "The Things I Miss the Most". (/end/ My best/worst FM Voice)
Actually this is a beautiful Saturday morning. It's sunny and quiet and finally the southern heat seems to be breaking. It's like one of those surreal scenes from a movie where the lead is reading the paper, sipping coffee, eating a donut and basically oblivious to everything. Time has disappeared, he's at peace at least for the moment. I am that guy. In the background Steely Dan is playing. ....It's going to be a good day.
Things I Miss The Most
I don't mind the quiet
Or the lonely nights
I don't miss the funky attitudes
And I don't miss the fights
I lie on the couch 'til suppertime
And hunker down and read the Post
And that's when I remember the things I miss the most:
The talk
The sex
Somebody to trust
The Audi TT
The house on the Vineyard
The house on the Gulf Coast
These are the things I miss the most
I kinda like frying up
My sad cuisine
Getting in bed and curling up with a girlie magazine
Sometimes in the corner of my eye
I see that adorable ghost
And then ba-boom I remember the things I miss the most
The talk
The sex
Somebody to trust
The comfy Eames chair
The good copper pans
The '54 Strat
These are the things I miss the most
I had a little birdy friend
By morning she was gone
Birdie good-bye
Birdie bye bye
I'm learning how to meditate
So far so good
I'm building the Andrea Doria out of balsa wood
The days really don't last forever
But it's getting pretty damn close
And that's when I remember the things I miss the most
The talk
The sex
Somebody to trust
The Audi TT
The house on the Vineyard
The house on the Gulf Coast
These are the things I miss the most
Oh yeah... Go Dawgs!
