"mama" outtake

i've come across this outtake from 83'. it's basically just him at the piano seemingly intoxicated (but then again when didn't he back then) having some kind of childhood flashback. asking his mother various often inaudible things. something about why the butterflies and what's this strange something was all i could really make out. the melody is quite nice though. might have been a nice song if he finished it. anyone know what i am talking about, any info on it or lyrics maybe?

i dont think this counts as an outtake, "Mama" was just a rehearsal song 2 my knowledge, much like "People Withought"

I recall this very short piano-and-voice rehearsal. Moving, minimal piano riff and pretty, if unintelligible, vocal melody. I can't recall the bootleg I heard it on, but I haven't seen it in about 10 years.

Yes, that's right! Lots of cool stuff on this! Interesting piano work, and I believe the Blues Version of Alphabet Street is also on this. I gotta dig this up.
