“Now (And Then)” reads like a short story, rather than a song. Interestingly enough, despite its first-person perspective, it doesn’t reflect any of Corgan’s experiences (nor of the people he knows).
He spoke about the song shortly before the album’s debut:
This one’s just really sad–some fucked u...
Peace colours
What's left of mine
I used to find
Pennies crushed on tracks
It's a long way back to the station
Now and then
I could be a friend
I could be a friend
Now and then
Now and then to you
I could be a friend of use
So hide me when you go
Back amongst the reeds
Cable coils
Around my neck
Whatever's best
It seems insane to me
Can't escape the family tree
Roots are buried deep
Deep as you can climb
I'll do
I could be a friend to you
Now and then
I could be a friend
Now and then
I could be a friend
Now and then to you
I could be a friend of use
No second chance at this
I'll watch you making love with them
Build a fire
Behind the school
Come and visit soon
If you're blue and alone
Hold my hand they're coming back for more
There's always one more score
I'm sure to blame for this
I've got to get this change through and through
Now and then
I could be a friend
I could be a friend
Now and then
I could be a friend
I could be a friend
Now and then
Now and then
