[End] Notes: 1. A couldn't find anything out there, that captures the complete song. 2. Billy Corgan stated in a TV performance (Storytellers on VH-1 in 2000 iirc) that this was written for and about his then girlfriend, Yelena Yemchuk. The girl who appears in the song's video. Who also directed the video for 'Zero' and co-directed the video for 'Thirty-three'. On the Greatest Hits DVD, Yelena appears on the alternate cut for 'Thirty-three'. Corgan split up with her around 2001/02.
