'“I wrote that song and I can’t quite remember why I asked Sarah to sing it,” says Murdoch. “But it’s somewhat inspired by the Edie Sedgwick biography. She’d gone through such a bad mental state. The only stuff she could take in were baby stories like Winnie the Pooh. So I wrote that one for Edie and the condition she was in."

I'll never sleep again'

the second line is about her partying lifestyle...the line 'I take a little overdose" is about her addiction to speed.
