Lyric Origin

Many of the lyrics from The Needle Was Traveling are direct sentences that can be found in various short stories or books, with each song relating to a singular, specific story. For example, the lyrics from "Across the Dial" can be found in Roald Dahl's "The Sound Machine," a short story in his collection "Skin and Other Stories". "Ninety Days" lyrics can be read from text in "Valis", a science fiction novel written by Philip K. Dick.
