Jeremy

Lyrics by Eddie Vedder

at home...drawing pictures... of mountaintops..with him on top
lemon yellow sun... arms raised in a V...the dead lay in pools of
maroon below...Daddy didn't give attention... to the fact that
Mommy didn't care...King Jeremy the wicked... ruled his world.

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

clearly I remember...picking on the boy...seemed a harmless little
fuck...but we unleashed a lion...gnashed his teeth, bit the recess
lady's breast...how could I forget...he hit me with a surprise left
my jaw left hurtin'...dropped wide open...just like the day...like
the day I heard...Daddy didn't give affection...and the boy was
something that Mommy wouldn't wear...King Jeremy the wicked.....
ruled his world.

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

Try to forget this... try to erase this.... from the blackboard.
