Becker Fagen, 1978

You call me a fool

You say it’s a crazy scheme

This one’s for real

I already bought the dream

               

I’ll learn to work the saxophone

I’ll play just what I feel

Drink scotch whiskey all night long

And die behind the wheel

I cried when I wrote this song

Sue me if I play too long

This brother is free

I’ll be what I want to be
