Elliott Smith

Steven Paul "Elliott" Smith (August 6, 1969 – October 21, 2003) was an American singer-songwriter and musician. Smith was born in Omaha, Nebraska, raised primarily in Texas, and resided for a significant portion of his life in Portland, Oregon, the area in which he first gained popularity. Smith's primary instrument was the guitar, but he was also proficient with piano, clarinet, bass guitar, drums, and harmonica. Smith had a distinctive vocal style, characterized by his "whispery, spiderweb-thin delivery," and used multi-tracking to create vocal layers, textures, and harmonies. more »

Alphabet city is haunted
Constantina feels right at home
She probably won't say you're wrong
But you're already wrong

You're already wrong
And you threw up whatever she shot down
Said show me around this alphabet town
Said show me around

There's a name you keep repeating
You got nothing better to do
And you're with someone who'll hear you say it and just not mind
Her hand on your arm

Her hand on your arm
She put her hand on your arm
And told you her name you can't pronounce it
I'll show you around this alphabet town

I'll show you around this alphabet town
I know what you are
I just don't mind
I won't say you're wrong

I know what you want
And it's what I want
So let's go out
I'm ready to go out

I'll show you around this alphabet town
I'll show you around this alphabet town
