Ray,

Haven't I read a post or three in the past about you listening to music? Well, I want you or anybody else to identify the following without cheating and running a google search and tell me who wrote and performed it:

Agents of the law
Luckless pedestrian
I know you're out there
With rage in your eyes and your megaphones
Saying all is forgiven
Mad Dog surrender
How can I answer
A man of my mind can do anything

CHORUS:
I'm a bookkeeper's son
I don't want to shoot no one
Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive
Got a case of dynamite
I could hold out here all night
Yes I crossed my old man back in Oregon
Don't take me alive

Jumptrap---My music knowledge has lots of holes in it. 50's rock I was pretty much up on and early 60's through about the Beattles. The next phase was amplied noise to me and I started going country. Now,I dont care for much of the country,so old stuff is about all I listen to. The song you asked about,I don't have a clue.

Don't know who wrote (maybe Fagen or Becker) it, but I do believe it was Steely Dan who performed it...BCB

You're on the ball dude! I can't sit here at the computer unless Steely Dan is blasting my eardrums..............agents of the law (dep. Al..har!), luckless pedestrians (me), I know you're out there with rage in your eyes and your megaphones.......saying all is forgiven,mad dog surrender (before we blow your *** off or beat you senseless)........how can I answer, a man of my mind can do anything...............then ol' Becker cranks the Stratocaster up ......gotta love it. beats the hell out of casting bullets.
