The Second Arrangement (full band) Pour out the wine, little girl I've got just two friends in this whole wide world Here's to reckless lovers We all need somebody Smashed in yellow Jag I've got my life and laundry in a Gladstone bag You should know the program Just one red rose and a tender goodbye (one last goodbye) [Chorus] And I run to the second arrangement It's only the natural thing Who steps out with no regrets A sparkling conscience a new address When I run to the second arrangement The home of a mutual friend Now's the time to redefine the first arrangement again It's a sticky situation A serious affair I must explain it to you somehow Right now I'll just move back one square Here comes that noise again Another scrambled message from my last best friend Something I can dance to A song with tears in it Old friends abandon me It's just the routine politics of jealousy Someday we'll remember That one red rose and one last goodbye (one last goodbye) [Chorus repeat]

 

The Second Arrangement (demo) Pour out the wine, little girl We got just two friends in this whole wide world, Ciao, bon giorno, baby It's been a lovely night, the wine was right, I am a refugee, And I like things just the way they used to be, I'm the same damn fool, that you knew years ago, So broken-hearted, One last goodbye [Chorus:] Then I run to the second arrangement It's only the natural thing The roue steps out, with no regrets, A sparkling conscience, a new address Then I run to the second arrangement, The home of a mutual friend, Now's the time, to redefine The first arrangement again You think you understand, Let me take you by your hand, I have never felt this way before, It's your thing if you say so, Don't ask me 'cause I don't know, I don't need this heartache anymore Pour out the wine, little girl We got just two friends in this whole wide world, Ciao, bon giorno, baby It's been a lovely night, the wine was right, I am a refugee, And I like things just the way they used to be, I'm the same damn fool, that you knew years ago, So broken-hearted, One last goodbye [Chorus] (transcribed by Bob Tyler)

Kulee Baba My nom-de-vage is Mexuine* I carry the proper papers I seek the primal rhythms of the bush. I preserve great moments as they come and sure this must be one. Brightly colored dancers on the screen are no more than a prelude to the ritual unfolding. no white man's eyes have ever seen the cruel primeval rite that you're beholding. [Chorus:] Kulee Baba coming your way ev'ry Sunday Live from nowhere sat'lite relay Hell on Broadway My suit is a bright Irish green the color and cut are striking I'm something of a standout in a crowd Don't chew on that power cable, son I guess I owe you one. Bored with my Chief Engineer I'll mix with the mouth* for all the folks at home. I'm tasting the local beer and half the crew is dancing on the fold [Chorus repeat] [solo] Sweet holy Jesus, what a night Saint Augustine was right The cam'raman began the kulee baba the broadcast was over our featured friends were gone I hear there's a bash in New Orleans It's a long finale, we must be moving on Moving on... [Chorus repeat]

I Can't Write Home About You Here in the heart of the city the night world has no name I wrote a letter last night and I tried to explain. Here, they say life is reckless and free and I guess that I agree It was hard to say I found a way but oh, no... [Chorus:] I can't write home about you I can't write home about you folks back home, they got a four-letter word about it I heard about you Bitch girls bring their money downtown to hear those cat-house blues Thin men with a dollar three-eighty with nothing to lose Tonight, I'll find myself in this all then I'll know that I belong My whole world is here I'll make it clear? but oh, no... [Chorus repeat] Gin and roses hold on, we'll spiral down soul dancing at the cafe bottom of the underground [solo] Tonight, I'll find myself in this all then I'll know that I belong My whole world is here I'll make it clear but oh, no... [Chorus repeat twice]

Talkin' About My Home I was born and raised and lived and loved and died Today But when I saw the lights my work was here Hooray It took me by surprise It was right before my eyes [Chorus:] Talkin' 'bout my home The city in the sky Talkin' 'bout my home The only home I ever known Well you're halfway through the gate where you will [live] Inside Well I knew a dude who said it ain't no trip He lied Well I saw his face, oh god When we crossed the promenade [Chorus] Well now I've got to catch that wunderbar Express So I'll just say good evening to you all God bless Just put me on that train To that great celestial plane [Chorus] (transcribed by Patrick Harman)
