What the hell do these lyrics mean?
What time signature is this song?
Was Jeff Porcaro 20 or 21 when he played on this? Is it Denny Dias that plays that lovely guitar solo? How did Steely Dan become to be so amazing?! So many questions! One of the top 5 bands ever!
@Danfan Whoops, correction on my last comment. I have the sheet music and I checked. The intro is in 4/4, the return to the intro in the middle of the song is in 9/8 and 6/8. The lyrical sections are 6/8 with a few 3/8 measures thrown in.

I'm afraid it's not 6/4, 4/4 or 2/4, nor does it meander between numerous time signatures. The whole song is in 3/4, played in triplets.

That's wrong. It is a mixture of 6/8, 9/8 and 12/8, absolutely not 3/4.

@Danfan lhlenam is correct. A mixture of 6/8, 9/8, and 12/8.
