Do you think lyrics like this would have flown in the 60's? Basically a song about a boy who kills himself in front of his classmates. Pearl Jam Jeremy lyrics [size=-1]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... Woo... [/size] [size=-1]Try to forget this...try to forget this... Try to erase this...try to erase this... From the blackboard... Jeremy spoke in class today... Jeremy spoke in, spoke in... Jeremy spoke in class today...[/size] [size=-1][/size] [size=-1] [/size]
If you had never seen the video, you would not know he shot himself in front of his class. Yes, I think they would have gone over just as good as the others from the time. Bob
What do you mean you wouldn't know he shot himself in front of the class??? You see him walk up, pull out the gun, then it cuts to the shot of everyone frozen, some with blood on them... in disbelief.
Pearl Jam lyrics are the best lyrics on the world. If they released Ten in '60, noone will ever heard of nirvana, and the world would be a better place. And for the lyrics: i've figured that he didn't just spoke in class, but i tought that he killed someone else. And the video is still No1
