The Second Arrangement Lyrics

Cover art for The Second Arrangement lyrics by Steely Dan

A surprisingly straight-forward song from 'The Dan.' It's about divorce - the protagonist has left his wife and all he owns is his bag and the yellow jag. The protagonist cheated, he got caught, and now he's been kicked to the curb. His two best friends are the bottle of wine, and his mistress, who's place he'll be staying at tonight. Great song!
