Chuck E. Weiss
&
Eleni Mandell
From ANDRAS JONES: Radio8Ball loves Chuck E. Weiss! This is his second appearance on the show. You may remember the one he did with All Day Sucker a few months back, and we’re hoping for more in the future. What? You don’t know Chuck E. Weiss? Don’t worry. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Every time he’s on the show I learn something new, and I hope you do too. The cat’s played with Lightning Hopkins, Tom Waits and The Butthole Surfers. Chuck and Eleni go way back. To the very beginning of her music career, which was the late middle of his. The synchronicities here are palpable. You can almost feel this episode sinking its roots into the fertile ground of our psyches as it beckons us to ponder “soup” and “bones” in a whole new way.
She say Charlie boy
She knows your sweet
From the hat on your head
To the shoes on your feet
She seen you walking
And she knows where you go
Home, home, home
And she only wanted to love you
Well, she never could
But she wanted to
She dreamed about all of the places you’d go
Home, home, home
And you can wind around the city
Let’s you slip by
We’ll come and find you
We know where you’ve been
And we know where you go
Home, home, home
French verse
Solo
Look out your window and you can see
She walks the wrong way down a one way street
She couldn’t wait, oh, you must’ve known
She’d have to go home
And she can hardly recall if she loved you
Well, she never could but she wanted to
She dreamed about all of the places you’d go
Home, home, home
And you can wind around the city
Let’s you slip by we’ll come and find you
We know where you’ve been
And we know where you go
Home, home, home
