"Slinky Thing" is a song by Donald Fagen, appearing as the first track from his album, Sunken Condos. Telling the story of an older man seeking the affection and companionship of a significantly younger woman, the song details the events surrounding the two as they spend time together and endure comments made by others, who advise the narrator to "hold on to that slinky thing." The narrator himself thinks about if "she (the younger woman) needs somebody who's closer to her own age."

The song draws similarities with the Steely Dan song Hey Nineteen, also about an older man seeking a younger woman.[1]
