Steely Dan - My Rival [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

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
I was the whining stranger
A fool in love
With time to kill

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
Sure he's a Jolly roger
Until he answers for his crimes
Yes, I'll match him whim for whim now

I still recall when I first held your tiny hand
I loved you more than I can tell
My Rival, Show me my Rival
But now it's stomping time
Sure he's a Jolly roger
Until he answers for his crimes
Yes, I'll match him whim for whim now
