Additional Information
Info from InSound.com:
“Teargarden By Kaleidyscope Vol. 1 | Songs for a Sailor is packaged in a silk-screened wooden box (7 1/4″ tall x 8″ wide x 1.05″ thick). Each box contains: a 4-song CD (with four new Smashing Pumpkins songs and instrumental intros), a 7” vinyl single (containing a new song and a B-Side), and a hand-carved “leopard stone” obelisk, about 2″ tall, similar to marble. Tracks include the guitar squealing “Song for a Son”, “Widow Wake My Mind” – a jagged-chorded, keyboard-buttressed ballad; “Astral Planes”, and “A Stitch in Time.” Billy Corgan is playing and recording almost everything himself, with studio help from long time collaborator Kerry Brown and new drummer Mike Byrne.
Teargarden By Kaleidyscope Vol. 1 is the first release in a series of eleven, comprising forty-four songs, to be anthologized in four song EPs in limited and elaborate packaging. The concept for Teargarden is based around four Tarot cards: the Child, the Fool, the Skeptic and the Mystic.”
Note SPfreaks: the order of the songs on the CD is very different to what the tracklist suggests. A version with a gold obelisk and a different version of the Teargarden Theme was pressed in a very limited number of 99 copies (see elsewhere on our site).

Songs For A Sailor
- 1 . A Song For A Son
Lyrics
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The son I never had
This is a song for a kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old heart
Who stitched up my old heart
This is a song for a dog
This is a song for a blown-out bird
The kind that don’t return to the nest
This is a song for a star
This is a song for a space invader
Who flew into the sun
Never to return
Never to return
And I am one of many
Many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many more
Many more to come
Many more to come
This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
He sailed without a map
This is a song for that kid
This is a song for that tailor
Who stitched up my old heart
Who stitched up my old heart
And broke it all apart
I am one of many
Many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many more
Many more to come
Many more to come
You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons
Carry them back home
You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons
Carry them back home
And I, I am one of many
Many more to come
Many more to come - 2 . Astral Planes

A love that’s mine

I’m looking for a love that I can find
To be mine, a love that’s mine
It’ll shine, in my mind
A love that shines
Accept the grace, the moment you are in
Accept the chase of where we must begin
‘Cause when you crawl, you crawl into my heart
And when you fall, you fall right in my arms
We’ll shine, yes, we’ll shine
Our love will shine
You’ll be mine, yes, all mine

Lyrics
It’s just a stitch in time
It’s perfect, I don’t mind
Sailing on your endless sea
You’re perfect, I don’t mind
I’ve got your stitch in mine
Everywhere I wanna be
Don’t say you want too much
They’ll say you’ve had enough
Don’t let them lay their trips on you
There’s somewhere I just gotta be
You’re everywhere at once, and you can’t break free
You’re everywhere at once, and you can’t catch me, watch out
There’s somewhere I just gotta be
It’s just a stitch in time
We fit together fine
A puzzle looking for its piece
You’re perfect, I don’t mind
Your travel makes you mine
Everywhere I look I see
Don’t say you want too much
They’ll say you’ve had enough
Don’t let them lay their trips on you
There’s somewhere I just gotta be
You’re everywhere at once, and you can’t break free
You’re everywhere at once, and you can’t catch me, watch out
There’s somewhere I just gotta be - 5 . Teargarden Theme – version I
