Lyrics Donald Fagen – Planet D’Rhonda
Text:
She’s from a small town somewhere upstate
I guess she’s somewhere between 19 and 38
She stays up all night, she drives too fast
I say, easy baby, baby slow down
On Planet D’Rhonda
When we go out dancing, she’s always the star
When she does the Philly Dog, I gotta have CPR
She put on a dress last night made of plastic wrap
It was off the hook, crazy sweet
What everybody’s wearing
On Planet D’Rhonda
My friends say Jim, you’re on a deadly spree
They just can’t understand that D’s my vitamin XYZ
She’s always frantic now
She’s never calm
She’s not the type of girl
You wanna bring home to mom
But when you need big lovin’
She never stops
Yes, it’s Monkey Time, twenty-four-seven
The name of the planet
Planet D’Rhonda
My friends say Jim, you’re on a deadly spree
They just can’t understand that D’s my vitamin XYZ
Sometimes she’s vicious, sometimes rude
You got to be a mind reader to guess her mood
But when you need big lovin’
She never stops
Yes, it’s Monkey Time, twenty-four-seven
Planet D’Rhonda
