I think this is pretty accurate:

The Wolf

Fire in the hen house
Protests in the deep south
Changing shapes and moving plates and shifting warring powers here to stay

Shangri-La in reverse
Time to call the wet nurse
Movie queens and wolverines and libertines all dressed up to the nines

Don't leave me waiting
Don't leave me waiting alone
He's run out of patience
He's run out of patience, he wants more
And I don't belong
And I don't belong here anymore
There's a wolf outside my door

Markets on the rebound
Riots in the ghost towns
Swimming pools and sunday school
And children looking up with famous eyes

Their dirty little secrets
Picking on the weakest
From Timbuktu to ? to ? they're wearing a disguise

The part before the solo seem to be unfinished. I can make out "I'm ready for a change" and "I'm going down the drain" in one version, but most versions sound like they don't incorporate those lyrics.

I'm not sure about "Children looking up with famous eyes" -- unless it's a reference to commercials for "end world hunger" type charity campaigns. :Johnathan:

Pretty sure it's "From Timbuktu to Kathmandu to Bellevue"

I hear the same "famous eyes" part. I can't tell what else it could be.

The part before the solo at niagara had something about "The Sun and the Rain and the Light" I want to say, but like you said, it varies between concerts.

"Don't leave me waiting
Don't leave me waiting alone
He's run out of patience
He's run out of patience, he wants more "

I think that this part in the album version is:

"Don't leave me waiting
The Wolf it's already at my door
He's run out of patience
I gave him my blood, but he wants more "

They very well could have recorded a new chorus for the studio too, so we don't really know.

I actually prefer the one with "I gave him my blood, but he wants more"

Yeah, the scratch vocals on the studio webcast version had those lines and one or two other minor differences, but I expect the final recorded vocals will be closer to how it's been done live.

mmh i don't know in the clip "A wolf in New York" the lyrics were "i gave him my blood etc..."
