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

"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

Lyrics
My bed of roses
In this sea of pain
Smoke in those poses
Postures and refrains
A million ways
To break your back
Still undecided if I’m coming back
Hello to you my friends
We’ll be together in the end
No doubt about it you can be sure
No doubt about it
Too all you buzzards
And debutantes
I give you this reply
Take anything you want
Just know illusion
Cause I’ll lose myself again, yeah
Hello to you my friends
We’ll be together in the end
No doubt about it you can be sure
No doubt about it
