Blood, Sweat & Tears – And When I Die (Peter, Paul and Mary cover) Lyrics 20 years ago
The general theme of this song is obviously death and passage into whatever comes after. The only thing I'm not sure about is the :one child born." If anyone has any insight on that, I'd like to hear it.

Steely Dan – Do It Again Lyrics 22 years ago
No, you're not the only one... I'm 17 too.

On the surface, this song is about getting away with murder (reminds me of Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix). But after a second look, this song could be about anything. For me, it is about unrequited love (to which I am no stranger). "Jack" cannot seem to grasp the fact the his girl doesn't love him back and continues to vie for her affection, hence "Go back, Jack. Do it again." Basically, Jack is whipped.

The last verse is still about Jack's inexorable struggle. Vegas is a symbol for love; both come with huge risks.
