Mr. Fagen, 65, is a good writer and highly talented musician—many rockers would have a hard time reading his charts—but what makes his brief book sing is his sharp tongue. He could teach Bill OReilly and Alec Baldwin tons about how to deliver a proper tongue-lashing. Post his tour journal on the Internet? Why should I let you lazy, spoiled TV Babies read it for nothing in the same way you download all those songs my partner and I sacrificed our entire youth to write and record, he snarls. Mr. Fagen, who once wrote a song called Godwhacker, in which he envisioned putting out a hit on the Almighty, is similarly harsh on his Earthbound enemies, citing a British study alleging that conservatives have an inordinately large amygdala that makes them delusional. Its got to be the amygdala thing, he insists. Period. End of story.
