'There's a disease. Going 'round the hospital. Green, green leaves. Falling from the trees.'
A minor classic. From their pretty decent mid-Nineties record, Car Button Cloth. Written by Evan Dando at the Silver Hill Hospital in Boston where he wound up after an acid induced breakdown. One thing that cheered him slightly while he was there was the discovery that Edie Sedgewick had once been committed there, which led him to get out his guitar and start strumming Just Like a Woman the song Dylan reputedly wrote about her.
