Gaslighting Abbie Lyrics - Steely Dan

One plush summer you come to me ripe and ready 

And bad through and through 

With that deep mystical soul synergy pumping steady 

Between me and you 

Lovin' all the beautiful work we've done, cara mia 

And it's barely July 

If we keep on boppin' until Labor Day 

Li'l miz Abbie - bye bye 

What will it be - some soothing herb tea? 

That might be just the thing 

Let's say we spike it with Deludin 

Or else - maybe tonight a hand of solitaire 

CHORUS: 

Flame is the game 

The game we call gaslighting Abbie 

It's a luscious invention for three 

One summer by the sea

With the long weekend that's comin' up fast 

Let's get busy 

There's just too much to do 

That black mini looks just like the one she's been missin' 

Feels good on you 

There's a few items we need in town - allez-vous girl 

There's no time to waste 

Such as fresh cable and fifteen watt bulbs 

Couple dozen - it's a big old place 

Let's keep it light - we'll do a fright night 

With blood and everything 

Some punky laughter from the kitchen 

And then - a nice relaxing hand of solitaire 

CHORUS 

You can choose the music 

I'll set up my gear 

Later on we'll chill and watch the fireworks from here 

Photos 

How can you knock this mighty spitelock 

Check out the work itself 

A mix of elegance and function 

That's right - a tweak or two and then she's out of here 

CHORUS
