Also, Steely Dan doesn’t belong in this discussion.

See #10 ... Yes, they do. The whole "Gaucho" album, especially "Hey Nineteen" ...

What this thread is missing is irony.

The guy portrayed in ‘Hey Nineteen’ is a middle-aged alcoholic and drug addict loser. Mostly all characters in Steely Dan’s songs are. The Nineteen is probably a high-school dropout skank that he is plying with liquor.

The Rino, or heavy Demo-Donor yacht class wouldn’t let him or his date within five miles of their club.

If they play this on yachts, then they probably aren’t even listening to the lyrics.
