Steely Dan — My Rival

[Verse 1] The wind was driving in my face The Smell of Prickly Pear (My rival, show me my rival) The milk truck eased into my space Somebody screamed somewhere I struck a match against the door Of Anthony's Bar and Grill [Chorus] I was the whining stranger A fool in love With time to kill [Verse 2] I've got detectives on his case They filmed the whole charade (My rival, show me my rival) He's got a scar across his face He wears a hearing aid [Chorus] Sure, he's a Jolly roger Until he answers for his crimes Yes, I'll match him whim for whim now [Instrumental break 1:50-2:53] [Verse 3] I still recall when I first held Your tiny hand in mine (My rival, show me my rival) I loved you more than I can tell But now it's stomping time [Chorus] Sure he's a Jolly roger Until he answers for his crimes Yes, I'll match him whim for whim now [Instrumental outro 3:28-4:34]
