Lyric discussion by Danfan 

Very very eerie and moving song. Sends a shiver down my spine with the lyric "when he sighed his body died in 15 ways." What could be a great film script is played out in a song lasting 2:45. Was there no end to these guys creativity?

i've always seen this as a dark humored reference to wonder bread building strong bodies 15 ways.

Man, all these years I thought that Fagen was singing "while he sighed his body died in FIFTY ways." Does anybody think that my interpretation alters the meaning of the song at all?

@Danfan @dabbindan has it -- it's a Wonder Bread reference.
