The third out of four songs titled after names in Bossanova was originally about a girl called Alison. However, as Black Francis stated in an interview with Q on September, 1990, Elvis Costello already had a song called “Alison”.
That’s pretty much the same reason Francis changed the name of “Velouria” from the original “Victoria”. But instead of changing the name, he decided to change the subject, and the song was rewritten to be about the Jazz pianist Mose Allison.
[Verse 1]
From distant star to this here bar
The me, the you, where are we now?
Hooray, the blues of everyone
[Chorus]
Allison
[Verse 2]
Keeps a smile around a while
He took no fright and jettisoned
We'll go tonight to hear him tell
"Oh well"
[Chorus]
Allison
(Allison)
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
And when the planet hit the sun
I saw the face of Allison
[Chorus]
Allison
Allison
Allison
Allison

I'm so glad this release since all the missing songs only existed on bootleg and the recording would cut in on some of them like this version of Allison with just Frank & Kim.
