Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes about Soothe: "recorded in me bedroom at my old apartment. you can hear the 7am buses slithering by. i used to go to sleep to the flanging car noises. the hiss that we had missed. i really only wanted this to be for me. but my friend said "I really don't think you can improve on that. so i left it be." "a song for my babies. children of the earth and such. i wanted to put this on siamese dream but i wimped out. shoulda coulda kinda didn't but i love it anyhow, makes me cry.".
Lyrics
Hungry, hungry again
Hungry, hungry again
When will it start to sway
When will it start to almost break you
Hungry, hungry again
Hungry, hungry again
I’ll miss you
I don’t wish you hurt
I forgive you
I don’t wish you away, away, away
It’ll almost break you
Almost take you
Almost break you
Almost break you up - 2 . Frail And Bedazzled
Lyrics
Say, now listen here
I wanna be oh so clear
I lost myself
Lost I’ll stay
Between your hands and my belief
And here I am, frail
Frail and bedazzled from all the glare
Tug at my sleeve
My little girl, supermaid
She don’t know that I have
Stole my smile from a Cheshire cat
And all I wanted was to be a man
Since I’ve gave up
I feel free
I feel free
I feel free
I feel free
Two of us less dangerous
It’s all inside our heads
Givin’ in for nothin’ less
Leavin’ me for him
Try to understand
The ones I love and their demands
It’s so unfair when they can’t see
That I’m the boy that really needs
Their love, I suppose
Frail and bedazzled from all the
Frail and bedazzled from all the
Frail and bedazzled from all the glare - 3 . Plume

Lyrics
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, gotta play
What it is, it never was
I don’t care to give enough
My boredom has outshined the sun
It’s so down low
I just want to have some little fun
Oh yeah, another day
Oh yeah, what a waste
What it is, it never was
I don’t care, or give a fuck
My boredom has outshined the sun
It’s so down low
I just want to have some little fun
Bring me down
Bring me down

Title extra: Pisces Iscariot version
Length: 4:10
BMI Number: 1776128
Additional Info: Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes: "Another recorded in an hour type thingers that has been in the box. Part of the Glynis lineage-sweet and sadness I've wasted all my years. I must have written that line a zillion times, it just ended up here. Sometimes when I listen to this I hear who we really are. Frail and gentle- it is what is. Rock power x 100. Note scary ending we would play that part for 15 minutes dum-de-dum-de-dum."
Lyrics
I wasted all my years
Been chasin’ all my fears
For another brighter than him
I gave in long ago
To make it to the show
But it’s not easy
When you’re alone
All your prayers
In my ears
Don’t you care
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
My honey little girl
C’mon lets go for a whirl
It’s still early
The sun is sleeping
She says she wants to marry me
She says she wants a baby
It’s not easy
When you’re scared
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
All your prayers
In my ears
Don’t you care - 5 . Blew Away
Lyrics
Blew, blew away
But I don’t wanna fade
Blew, blew
And if you love her
You know it will come true
And if you need her
You know that she’ll be there
Stay awake, I lie here
With her and I fall
And when I wake inside you
I know you know I’m yours
Blew, blew away
But I don’t wanna fade
Blew, blew
And if you’re sad, too
Until the angel sings and touches you
Don’t confuse my only life
As it blew, and please don’t ever leave
And I will grieve, and remember thee
Hope to meet you there
And I wanna let her know
That I won’t let her go
I wanna let her know
That I love her so
I’m blew, blew, blew away
But I don’t wanna
Blew, I love you

Lyrics
Got me a raygun
Got me an altitude
Can’t help feelin’ something’s wrong
With every one of you
Inside your head
Trust me instead
Inside your head
Talk revolution
As if it matters now
I don’t care anyway
Just give me what I want
Inside your head
Trust me instead
Inside your head
Oh, honey
Fill me with your little whispers
Still they think of nightmares
Of a generation sent to burn
Come on honey
Let’s go for a ride
Down where the crickets learn to sing and play, baby
Inside your head
Trust me instead
Inside your head
Trust me instead
Inside your head
Trust me instead
Inside your head
Yeah, it’s a motherfucker
Oh, hey
(WOO!) - 7 . Hello Kitty Kat
Lyrics
Say hello before you say goodbye
I should go before you make me cry
She wants to bleed every drop inside of me
But I aim to please the little girl inside of me too
Yeah, yeah
You know I hate to say it
Oh no, I always stay
I don’t wanna be like the others please
Who’s sorry now
Who’s sorry now
If I show you how
Will you let me down
Slit my wrists and die a whore
Love to love to love what you adore
I can give you anything
But please let me be your everything, please
Yeah, yeah
You know I hate to say it
Oh no, I always stay
I don’t wanna be like the others please
Who’s sorry now
If I show you how
Will you let me down
Will you let me down
Who’s sorry now
Who’s sorry now
My love is weakness
My love is oh so wrong
My love is sadness
My love is oh so strong
My teeth are razor sharp
My back is fucking strong
I’ll be with you
But not for long
No, no
You know I hate to say it
Oh no, I always stay
I don’t wanna be like the others please
Who’s sorry now
Who’s sorry now
Who’s sorry now
If I show you how
Will you let me down
Will you let me down
Please let me down
Please let me down
(Song’s over) - 8 . Obscured
Lyrics
Lost your head
Now you sleep on the floor
What you said
I don’t want anymore
Through the haze
Make your eyes up to ache
Out in space
Days away
Through these eyes
I rely on all I’ve seen
Obscured
Through these eyes
It looks like I’m home tonight
Left for dead
As you sweep out the poor
Things we said
We don’t mean anymore
Tear inside her
Like a fallen kite
Ah, ah, ah, ah, hey, hey, yeah
Through these eyes
I deny on all I’v seen
Obscured
Through these eyes
Ooks like I’m home tonight
What you said
Made a mess of me
What you said
I don’t want
Obscured
- 9 . Landslide
Lyrics
I took my love and took it down
I climbed a mountain, I turned around
And I saw my reflection in a snow covered hill
Till the landslide brought it down
Mirror in the sky, what is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life
Well, I’ve been afraid of changing ’cause I’ve
Built my life around you
Time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m getting older too
Well, I’ve been afraid of changing ’cause I’ve
Built my life around you
Time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I’m getting older too
I’m getting older too
I took my love and took it down
I climbed a mountain, I turned around
And if you see my reflection in a snow covered hill
The landslide brought it down
The landslide brought it down - 10 . Starla

Additional Info: From 5:27-30, "listen for the police car go by" (Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes). "I met this girl in Dallas when we were on tour with the chili peppa's and that was where I got the idea for the name for the song because when she said her name I thought wow, what a great title for a song. 2 1/4 years later I run into this same girl at a party and I say did you hear that song we recorded using your name, Starla? And she said, no my name is Darla but hey Starla, Darla whatever it doesn't matter, so there you go. Never trust a girl who ends up with well I can't say." (Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes).
Lyrics
I’m in here
Please take me home
Starla dear, I’m all alone
When you can’t decide what’s on your mind, it’s clear
I’m near
Starla dear
To disappear takes some more time
Starla dear, you’re on my mind
Soon, soon I’ll be leaving
Soon, soon I’ll be leaving
I hear all you’re saying
I hear all you’re failing
I’m in here
Please take me home
Starla dear, I’m all alone
When you can’t decide what’s on your mind, it’s clear
I’m here
Starla dear
Serve yourself
No one else can do for you like you
No one else fails like me
In my eyes I burn alive
Fly like a bird
No more words just you and I
High in the sky
- 11 . Blue
Lyrics
Hey blue, all your love is strange
Come out with all those crazy names
So true when you lie
For you, blue
Right or wrong
I belong
Right or wrong
Hey blue, where’d you run to now?
Miss you since they found you out
I’ve been waiting such a long time
For your smile, for you, blue
I lay with you this velvet morning
Stay with me for a while
Where we run to is up to you
Just stay with me for a while - 12 . Girl Named Sandoz

Lyrics
Well I met a girl called Sandoz
And she taught me many many things
Good things, very good things
Sweet things
I met her on a sunny morning
It was hot but the snow lay on the ground
Strange things, very strange things
My mind has wings
Sandoz, Sandoz you taught me love
Sandoz, Sandoz you taught me love
Will you tell me why
We could all learn something from your mind
She is very old, you many think she’s young
One kiss from her and you know your time has come
Good times for all time

Lyrics
I lay my head on her bosom
To cry myself to sleep
I seek no greater wisdom
Than she has given me
La dolly vita
Sweet as true love
La dolly vita
Cool as ice cream
Cool as ice cream
Even with all her visions
You can’t even stop
Can’t see what you’re missing
Spinning like a top
Fade away I want to see her
Fade away I want to see her
I only want to meet her
La dolly vita
True as blue sky
La dolly vita
Cool as ice cream
Cool as ice cream
Take it all the way down
Forsake what you have known
Take it all the way down - 14 . Spaced
Lyrics
Dad dad dad
Dead dead dead dead dead
Was I ever alive?
Fucking makes you alive in one minute
Solstice
I am solstice filled with mercury
Filled with mercury
Liquid fucked
See right through your heart
See right through your heart
Fuck your heart
I am mercury liquid pure
Hot, alive, dead, mucked fish eyes, doors
I was born alive
I’ll fucking kill you
I’ll beat your soft baby head with my own hand
Careful with that baby
Don’t ever say the h word around him
Ashamed
I am ashamed of my name, say it
I hate the sound of your shit because it means no good
It means cheap, liar, smart ass piece of shit
Change it to raygun you fuck
Billy the loon
Billy the loon
I am mars
I am mars
Billy addly addly addly….
Your name causes shit
While I may be no expert on this reality there is no god but shame
God is hurt, god is cold
Try that once, god is dead
There is not another one
Battle
Cold heart radio
Feedback
The pain
Reoccuring messages of badness
Reoccuring living bad dreams at the vortex of lost souls
Wailing lost souls of shame
We are in one hole
Like a cup of mercury phosphate
Brrr
Shuddering around [?]
Taste my shit you wench
Lifting wailing lost souls who stand a chance
Hot, my eyes darkly gaze and wonder- do not enter [?]
Why why why?
I was born whole
Fractured divided shattered into a billion fragments
A million piece puzzle
A million piece jigsaw puzzle with no this, and no that..…
