The Philip K. Dick & Coil connection

I was reading Dick's "A Maze of Death" the other day and found this very familiar sentence:

>"One day," Babble said, "your pills are going to hatch, and some strange birds are going to emerge."

Which, of course, reminded me of Coil's "Strange Birds". I vaguely recall some articles about the band or interviews with Balance and Sleazy declaring their interest in Dick's works, but cannot put my finger on it. I guess the sentence is too similar to the lyrics, so it's hardly a coincidence, unless there are another sources and/or explanations. Anyone?
