(TV) Verlaine I Beam show



Hi Leo,

I noticed that there was no setlist for Tom's 10/25/88 show at the i-Beam in SF. Below is what I have, including two songs that I didn't know that you probably do. I couldn't make out all of the words, even with headphones and pausing/repeating, as witnessed by the question marks.

Best,

Brian

I couldn?t place #?s 3 & 10, but here are the lyrics as good as I could get them:

Beautiful Hell

I took a walk
In beautiful Hell
Just spoken for new displaced (?)
The thing was so slightly wound
There was nothing there that could place
That could place
No there was nothing there
That could place
I took a walk

Beautiful hell
I took a stroll
Hopin? for a word profound
Most of us render
They?re no accommodations (?)
Beautiful hell is no mere station

It?s not a style?not a style
It?s not a goal?goal (?)
But notheless and always
k?I took a walk
A walk I took
I took a walk
Who?d believe it?
Not even I
To dream up such a by and by
I think they should have
Censored this piece
Beautiful hell is what it took

I took a walk in beautiful hell
Looking for the new displaced (?)
Everything there was so tightly bound
Not a single thing could place
Not a single thing would place
Not a single thing would place

Harmonica Joe

Old Harmonica Joe
Guess he?s getting? kinda slow
Well he plays an old banjo
What a noise Harmonica Joe

He says ?I?ll be archaic
Yes, and also discontent
This country?s calling you
Things like bent (?)?

Amigo Old Harmonica Joe
Guess you?re getting kinda slow
Like when you play that old banjo
Old Harmonica Joe

He tells me ?There is my business card
Call me when you wanna buy some money?
You are just such a _____
I?ll save your life because Joe says so
Old Harmonica Joe
Guess you?re getting?kinda slow
When he  plays the old banjo
What a noise Harmonica Joe

I thought to say the______
Not knowing what it was
Every standby placed upon
Became a ______ cause

Won?t you now, my amigo
Amigo ami amigo Harmonica Joe
I don?t he?s so so slow
When you play that old banjo
Harmonica Joe? Old Harmonica what a noise Joe, what a noise
