Coming in right after the heavy nine minute “Silverfuck”, the song begins with a clean chorus-set guitar, then followed by a slightly distorted guitar in the same tune as the clean guitar. A shaker then joins after a couple seconds of guitar. Then Billy’s soothing voice joins in. It’s a perfect song...
[Verse 1]
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet little agony
I don't know just where you've been
But I'll take, take, take all that you have for me
In sin, where are we going?
[Chorus]
And they all want you to change
And they all want you to change
[Verse 2]
And the sad, sad, sad, all the sad faces drown
In this town, where are we going? Yeah
[Chorus]
And they all want you to change (Where are we going? Yeah, yeah)
And they all want you to change (Where are we going?)
Sweet Sweet was written by Billy Corgan.

A hobo that hops the tracks and jumps on the train. He wants to go wherever the ride will take him. There is joy in a refusal to change, even when you know that the journey is fixed.
-Billy Corgan, 2011 Reissue Liner Notes
