Tree (reprise) Lyrics - Knee Plays - David Byrne

Today is an important occasion 

She thinks that she must wear the right clothes 

The right combination of clothes will make her lucky 

But there are specific kinds of luck 

And different kinds are needed for different occasions 

A blue dress for intuition 

The grey shirt and maroon slacks for making strong statements 

The navy pullover and the woolen skirt for discovering mystery 

She thinks of what she wore on a similar occasion 

Like the one she will be involved in today 

Particularly a similar occasion that was successful for her 

She lies on the bed and imagines herself in a variety of outfits 

She quickly narrows the range of possibilities

She tries them on in a few combinations 

The striped shirt and corduroy slacks 

The red dress, she leaves the house 

The outcome is certain
