The album Sister is loosely 'about' Philip K. Dick (PKD had a twin sister who died six weeks after she was born, and this obsessed him throughout his life). I remember Thurston Moore saying in an interview that some of the lyrics for this album were simply plucked from PKD's writings. Given how 'Dickian' the lyrics to Stereo Sanctity are, I'm guessing this is one of those songs.

Right on.
Right on.
Only Apparently Real is a Paul Williams book about PKD's life and "she's talking blue streaks everywhere" comes directly from dialogue in VALIS.
