Pearl Jam on Jimmy Fallon
MNTB Greatest Lyrics – Jeremy
This song is based on Jeremy Wade Delle, a 15 year old who shot himself in front of his English class on January 8, 1991. Delle was described by schoolmates as “real quiet” and known for “acting sad.” After coming in to class late that morning, Delle was told to get an admittance slip from the school office. He left the classroom, and returned with a .357 Magnum revolver. Delle walked to the front of the classroom, announced “Miss, I got what I really went for”, put the barrel of the firearm in his mouth, and pulled the trigger before his teacher or classmates could react.
At home, drawing pictures of mountain tops
With him on top lemon yellow sun, arms raised in a v
And the dead lay in pools of maroon below
Daddy didn’t give attention
Oh, to the fact that mommy didn’t care
King Jeremy the wicked…oh, ruled his world…
Jeremy spoke in class today…
Clearly I remember pickin’ on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
Ooh, but we unleashed a lion…
Gnashed his teeth and bit the recess lady’s breast…
How can I forget?
And he hit me with a surprise left
My jaw left hurtin’…ooh, dropped wide open
Just like the day…oh, like the day I heard
Daddy didn’t give affection, no…
And the boy was something that mommy wouldn’t wear
King Jeremy the wicked…oh, ruled his world
Jeremy spoke in class today…
Try to forget this…try to forget this…
Try to erase this…try to erase this…
from the blackboard…
Pearl Jam Over Does It
Last Tuesday at Pearl Jams concert at Lonons O2 Arena, Eddie Vedder decided to be a little bitch once more. First they start their show 15 minutes late and played up to the O2’s curfew of 11:00pm, then when they were supposed to get off the stage, Vedder had another one of his moments and decided to stay on for another 20 minutes. The Arena had to turn on the houselights but Vedder and his bandmates decided to sit down in the middle of the stage and sang another song. I used to like PJ for their first 3 albums but Vedder just annoys me now.
