About

In “Pixeleen,” Fagen affects an accent as he pitches an idea for a movie: an action hero who splits her time between fighting bad guys and dealing with her teenage life.

Oh, and there’s something…digital about her I guess?

Pixeleen Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Our man Abu squeezes off twenty tracer rounds
And that's when she jumps the turnstile
And as she clings to the roof of the speeding train
The Double A down to Sheridan Square
Her cell phone rings
It's, like, her stupid father
Be in the door by ten—again

[Chorus]
Pixeleen
Dream deep my three-times perfect ultrateen
Pixeleen (Born in the bogs of Jersey)
Pixeleen (Trained how to love and spy hard)
Pixeleen (Dropped on the streets of Roppongi)
Pixeleen (Soaked through on the floor of a noodle shop)

[Verse 2]
And when Abu rams the clip in the mini-Glock
Up on the catwalk inside the warehouse
You whip a knife from the top of your go-go boot
Just a flash of spectacular thigh
Your pager starts to throb
It's your as-if boyfriend Randall
Better keep it real—or whatever

[Chorus]
Pixeleen
Rave on my sleek and soulful cyberqueen
Pixeleen (Penned by a hack in the Palisades)
Pixeleen (Backed by some guys from Columbia)
Pixeleen (Shot all in digital video)
Pixeleen (For a million and change)

[Bridge]
Flash back to cool summer nights
Freddy, can we cut to the chase?
In a room above your garage
Everything about me is different
Symmetrical and clean

[Verse 3]
This is what I see
Just a girl in girlie trouble
Dancing in the video
With gun and tambourine

[Chorus]
Pixeleen
Be good my three-times perfect ultrateen
Pixeleen (Born on the floor of a noodle shop)
Pixeleen (Dropped in the bogs of Jersey)
Pixeleen (Shot by a guy from Columbia)
Pixeleen (Soaked through in digital video)
Pixeleen (Girl with the sweet backstory)
Pixeleen (Pitched in a trailer in Burbank)
Pixeleen (Cast by a cool-enough yes-man)
Pixeleen (Screened at a festival in Utah)
Pixeleen
