Fagen Donald Springtime Lyrics

Springtime Lyrics

Here at Laughing Pines 

 Where the party never ends 

 There's a spicy new attraction 

 On the Funway 

 You can scan yourself 

 For traces of old heartaches 

 The details of desire 

 Shimmering - shimmering 

 

 Yowie! - It's Connie Lee 

 At the wheel of her Shark-de-Ville 

 We're cruisin' at about a thousand miles an hour 

 But the car is standin' still 

 So good to hear that crazy laugh 

 To hear her whisper hold me tight 

 To learn to love all over again 

 On that warm wet April night 

 

 Chorus: 

 Swing out 

 To Lake Nostalgia 

 Route 5 to Laughing Pines 

 Get off at Funway West 

 Drive into Springtime 

 Drive into Springtime 

 

 Easter Break - '66 

 A shack on Cape Sincere 

 Mad Mona bakin' gospel candy 

 It was a radical year 

 We get a little silly 

 And fall into microspace 

 It's even better this time around 

 With Coltrane on the K.L.H. 

 

 Chorus 

 

 It's you and me honey, in a crowded booth 

 At the Smokehouse in the Sand 

 I'm dragging out some bad old gag 

 When you touch my hand 

 At 4 a.m. we go out of this place 

 You look absurdly sweet 

 We hike downtown to Avenue A 

 Like we own the street 

 

 Chorus
