(W.Becker, D.Fagen)

After closing time
|
At the country Fair
|
I detect the El Supremo
|
In the room at the top of the stairs
|
|
Well I've been around the world
|
And I've been in the Washington Zoo
|
And in all my travels
|
As the facts unravel
|
I've found this to be true
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
|
They got the house on the corner
|
With the rug inside
|
They got the booze they need
|
All that money can buy
|
|
They got the shapely bods
|
They got the Steely Dan T-shirt
|
And for the coup-de-gras
|
They're outrageous
|
So honey let me tell you how
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
|
Show biz kids making movies of themselves
|
They don't give a fuck about anybody else
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
With the shade on the light
|
While the poor people sleepin'
|
All the stars come out at night
|
