There was a movie with the line:

“We are all told, at some point in time, that we can no longer play the children’s game; we just don’t know when that’s going to be. Some of us are told at 18, some of us are told at 40. But we are all told.”

Steely Dan, with this track, told all of us that we can no longer play the children’s game.
