Jeremy


At home
And drawing pictures
Of mountain tops
With him on top

Lemin yellow sun
Arms raised in a V
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
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 could I forget

And 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, 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

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 class today

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

Oh woah oh, oh oh oh
Oh woah oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Oh woah oh, oh oh oh
Ay ay ay ay ay ay yeah
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh yeah
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh
