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).

      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

      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      Widow wake my mind
      Widow wake my mind
      Widow wake my mind
      Widow wake my mind
      I’m looking for a love, a love that shines
      That shines, a love that shines
      To be mine, yes, all mine
      A love that’s mine
      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      Widow wake my mind
      Widow wake my mind
      Are you real this time?
      Widow wake my mind
      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
      Our love will shine
      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      Oh, oh oh, oh, oh oh
      I’m looking for a love that I call mine
      Shine, we’ll shine
      Widow wake my mind
      Shine, we’ll shine
      Widow wake my mind
      Shine, we’ll shine
      We’ll shine
      Widow wake my mind
      Shine, we’ll shine
      We’ll shine
      Widow wake my mind
      Shine, we’ll shine
      We’ll shine
      Widow wake my mind
      Shine, we’ll shine

      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
