Lyrics Tree (Today Is an Important Occasion) - 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 are needed – for different occasions:
A blue dress for intuition
The grey shirt and maroon slacks – for making strong statements
The navy pullover – and her woollen 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.
