Who are these children
Who scheme and run wild
Who speak with their wings
And the way that they smile
What are the secrets
They trace in the sky
And why do you tremble
Each time they ride by

CHORUS:
Throw out your gold teeth
And see how they roll
The answer they reveal
Life is unreal

Who are these strangers
Who pass through the door
Who cover your action
And go you one more
If you're feeling lucky
You best not refuse
It's your game the rules
Are your own win or lose

CHORUS

    I like rainwalk's interpretation the most - that's the general jist I get from it.

    This song features what is in my opinion the most straight ahead jazz solo. The soloist was Denny Dias. According to wikipedia he was a founding member of Steely Dan.

    Now he is a computer programmer. I've tried to play a little jazz and done some basic programming. Doesn't surprise me at all - they're both mindfucks.

    God bless him love his guitar playing.
