PEARL JAM LYRICS - Jeremy

"Jeremy"



At home

Drawing pictures

Of mountain tops

With him on top

Lemon yellow sun

Arms raised in a V

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

Pickin' on the boy

Seemed a harmless little fuck

But we unleashed a lion

Gnashed his teeth

And bit the recess lady's breast



How could I forget

He hit me with a surprise left

My jaw left hurting

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.
