Donald Fagen Lyrics
"Springtime"

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

Swing out to Lake Nostalgia
Take 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 we fall into microspace
It's even better this time around with Coltrane on the K.L.H.

Swing out to Lake Nostalgia
Take Route 5 to Laughing Pines
Drive into Springtime, drive into Springtime (Springtime)
Drive into Springtime

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
Now, we hike downtown to Avenue A
Like we own the street

Swing out to Lake Nostalgia
Take Route 5 to Laughing Pines
Get off at Funway West, drive into Springtime

Swing out to Lake Nostalgia
Take Route 5 to Laughing Pines (Laughing Pines)
Get off at Funway West, drive into Springtime
Drive into Springtime

Drive into Springtime
Get off at Funway West
Drive into Springtime
Drive into Springtime (Springtime)
Drive into Springtime
