Elliott Smith - Wouldn't Mama Be Proud (Live)

[@whitestripebuzz]

every song he touched turned to gold.

[@samfemino]

elliott had the tastiest chord changes among the mainstream

[@whitestripebuzz]

Because to his enormous credit, he never sold out and made a mainstream record. Figure 8 was his closest to it, but that album is still far too creative for the emotionless masses to accept.

The question is wouldn't mama be proud? There's a silver lining in the corporate cloud And the pretty post that you're taking as As an NCO of the great pretender I should sure think so Wouldn't mama be proud? "Can i take your order?" Asks the heavenly host Ticket to the jetstream Blowing coast to coast The long stemmed glasses, a movie And a pleasant dream in mid air You gotta tell me quickly 'Cause we're almost there Wouldn't mama be proud? Pointed out of the window At the sky gone black Kid you're on the right track If I send you postcards From the side of the road Photographs of moving Parts about to explode If I call to keep it together Like you say i can do To transmit a moment From me to you Wouldn't mama be proud? Wouldn't mama be proud? Wouldn't mama be proud?
