Steely Dan's, "Kid Charlemagne"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Is there gas in the car?
Yes there's gas in the car.
Yes there's gas in the car.
Why They're Nonsensical:
ok, I guess it makes sense, but...Well, even Walter Becker said in an interview that he was roasted by a cabbie who realized during the cab ride who he was, and asked if he was the one who wrote those 'ridiculous' lyrics.

Steely Dan's, "My Old School"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Oleanders growing outside her door
Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale
Soon they're gonna be in bloom up in Annandale
Why They're Nonsensical:
The "Annandale" referenced throughout the song is Annandale, New York; oleanders do not grow in cold climates like that of New York.

Steely Dan's, "Rikki Don't Lose That Number"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
...send it off in a letter to yourself.
Why They're Nonsensical:
What good would this do? Rikki could simply lose the letter once it was delivered. This is no more effective than simply writing oneself a note!
