Starla
"my friend aneta still says to me that this song should have been on
siamese dream. but back again to that no record 2x rule. this was recorded at the same
time as plume, and was also intended to be a demo, but we needed b-sides for our pretty
XXXXXXXXXNX worthless i am one u.k. single (the dark continent) so in a way plume and
starla were their own single if that make makes any sense at all. recorded over time, or
recorded at two different sessions, one for vocals and solos and one for drums,
etc,.another song with lyrics written at the last second. i wrote the middle part on the
back of an envelope--serve yourself no one else can do for you like you and no one else
fails like me but in my eyes i i burn alive no more words just you and i high in the the
sky--some of my favourite lyrics. better that i did not care solo played at 7am. listen
for the police car going by."
"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." -BC
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
To disappear takes so much 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
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
