Låttexten till Jeremy av Pearl Jam:

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
Jeremy spoke in class today

Clearly I remember
Picking on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck
Oh, but we unleashed a lion
Gnashed his teeth and
Bit the recess lady’s breast
How could I forget?

And he hit me
With a surprise left
My jaw left hurting
Oooh 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
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today

Whoa… (x15)

Try to forget this
(Try) to forget this
(Try) to erase this
From the black board

Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in class today
Jeremy spoke in, spoke in…
Jeremy spoke in, spoke in…
Jeremy spoke in class today

Whoa (x25)

Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
yeah yeah!
