"Snowbound" continues the concept story as laid out in Kamakiriad, a journey in a dream car set in a futuristic time.

The song focuses on a city with chronically bad weather, and poor icy road conditions.

Juxtaposed onto the harsh drabness of their robotically efficient existence is a soft falling snow.

Donald Fagen's face is visible throughout much of the video as an overlord like figure, watching each drone's every move.
