Steely Dan - Jack Of Speed lyrics

Teddy's rolling now most every night Skatin' backwards at the speed of light He's changed - in a thousand little ways He's changed - yes indeed You know he's movin' on metal, yes he's Hanging tight with the Jack of Speed Sheena's party - there's a case in point That right-wing hooey sure stunk up the joint He's gone - he walks through the old routines But he's gone - guaranteed He may be sittin' in the kitchen, but he's Steppin' out with the Jack of Speed You maybe got lucky for a few good years But there's no way back from there to here He's a one way rider On the shriek express And his new best friend is at the throttle more or less He can't hear you honey - that's alright Pack some things and head up into the light Don't stop - he'll be callin' out your name But don't stop when you hear him plead You better move now little darlin' or you'll be Trading fours with the Jack of Speed
