LenTalk:
***before THE FUTURE:
Thanks a lot, friends. Very kind, very kind, you know. I really appreciate this warm welcome this evening and we're gonna try to sing our little hearts out for you all.
Give me back the Berlin Wall, give me Stalin and St. Paul. I've seen the future, brother!
***after THE FUTURE:
Miss Julie Christensen! Perla Batalla!
***before AIN'T NO CURE FOR LOVE:
When the Prince of Peace was hanging from his final tree, and he looked down at the people beneath him: the Roman soldiers, the Pharisees, the Sadducees, the Hellenes, the Jews. And he saw their upturn faces. The faces of anger, envy, bewilderment, greed, despair. He looked into those faces and he felt that lever had been thrown into cosmos and nothing ever would be the same again. And he looked down at them and he knew for certain, he knew for sure, he knew for all time there ain't no cure for love.
***after AIN'T NO CURE FOR LOVE:
Paul Ostermayer on the saxophone!
***before FIRST WE TAKE MANHATTAN:
Thank you so much. I thank you for the items that you sent me. The monkey and the plywood violin. I've practised every night, now I'm ready. First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin.
***after FIRST WE TAKE MANHATTAN:
We'll be back in about 10 minutes. Thanks a lot, friends!
***before DEMOCRACY:
From the church where the outcast can hide
From the mosque where the blood is dignified
Like the fingers on your hand
Like an hourglass of sand
We can separate, but not divide
And I know your baby's missing
But we sited her today
She was cleaning her machine gun
She was waving her beret
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
***after DEMOCRACY:
Steve Meador on the drums!
***before WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE:
Baby, let's get married... See, I've never had response quite that enthusiastic! We've been alone too long. Let's be alone together. Let's see if we're that strong. Let's do something crazy, substan... Ha, ha! Ah, wherever I go, you'll meet me right there. Thank you.
***after WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE:
Paul Ostermayer on the flute!
***before I'M YOUR MAN:
Oh, thank you so much, friends. If you want a boxer, I will step into the ring for you. And if you want a doctor, please line up, because I will examine every inch of you.
