Lyrics for Jeremy

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 Pickin' on the boy Seemed a harmless little fuck But we unleashed the 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 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 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
