BROOKLYN (OWES THE CHARMER UNDER ME) Lyrics

Artist: Steely Dan
Album: Can't Buy A Thrill

A race of angels
Bound with one another
A dish of dollars
Laid out for all to see
A tower room at Eden Rock
His golf at noon for free
Brooklyn owes the charmer
Under me

His lady's aching
To bring a body down
She daily preaches
On where she wants to be
An evening with a movie queen
A face we all have seen
Brooklyn owes the charmer
Under me

A case of aces
Done up loose for dealing
A piece of island cooling in the sea
The whole of time we gain or lose
And power enough to choose
Brooklyn owes the charmer
Under me

"it's golf at noon for three Brooklyn KNOWS the charmer under me" I thought it was Brooklyn Knows not Brooklyn Owes. But don't sue me if I'm wrong on this. Also the golf thingy - I am real sure the 'His' is actually 'It's'. As far as 'free' or 'three' I'm good with either.
