Fleeting Days is a 2003 folk rock album by Dan Bern and the International Jewish Banking Conspiracy. While much of Bern's music is heavily influenced by Bob Dylan, and "Bern sings like he's making fun of Dylan even when he isn't",[4] Fleeting Days is also influenced by the style of Elvis Costello and Bruce Springsteen. Its songs are more modest and toned down compared to earlier albums, but Dan Bern's quirky lyrics and imagery remain.
