    when i first heard World Wide suicide, i always thought he just repeated the title:
    'the world, world, oh oh, its a world wide suicide" didnt make any sense to me but i liked the music.

    then my brother mocked me...

    Heard: "I could be you..."

    also:
    Actual: "I find it on the run..."

    oooppss.....

    Beavis: No, Pearl Jam came first.
    Butt-head: Well, they both suck.

    What the bleep is this world coming to
    you didn't leave a message at least
    I coulda learned your voice one last time
    Daily minefield this could be your time by would
    What'de ya hit me for

    All the bills go by and the initiatives are taken up
    By the middle, there ain't gonne be any middle any more
    And the cross i'm bearing home indicative of my place
    let the porch, let the porch

    Hear my name, take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand right beside me
    I just need to say
    When life gives you lemons, throw them at somebody.

    "I wish I was a silhouette, someone who waited with me" - my poor listening skills

    "I wish I was a sailor, with someone who waited for me" - the actual lyric

    I kinda like the silhouette line better, but then I'm not a songwriter, so what do I know? It doesn't make sense, but it sounds better - and looks better...

    I thought mine was bad........I thought he was saying "soy fields.......soy fields......clearer, in my, rearviewmirror.

    I sang that out loud at work one day, and my co-worker laughed his ass off (and of course, let me know the real lyric).

    And now, after reading this thread, I have to go check out the real lyrics, because I too hear "pissed on my plate.....swallowed it down".

    Yikes!

    I used to think in Spin The Black Circle when he says 'I see this needle, I see my hand, drop drop droppin it down, oh so gently' he was saying:

    'drop drop droppin it down, oh so genuine'

    Haha

    Eh isn't that about putting a needle on a Vinyl? :) you gotta be gentle.

    Even Flow seems to have confused many others than just me..
    anyway i just realized he DOESNT sing :

    "Oh, giiirlfriend, he cant have when he's happy, looks he's aint"

    the real lyrics are:
    "Oh, dark grin, he can't help, when he's happy looks insane, oh yeah"

    Since already on the subject, i read somewhere about someone messing up U2's Mysterious Ways, singing:
    "Its alright, its alright, its alright ... SHAMU, the mysterious whale"
    that cracked me up so hard..=)

    How about Matt Cameron's fave...

    "I wanna rock and roll all night,
    and partly every day."

    What an idiot I was.

    State of Love and Trust:
    "state of love and trust
    as ah forced it down to pretest
    since still prays and preaches
    but to have an empty core

    and the signs are passin
    grab the wheel can read it
    sevred by possiblay
    smell that's on my hands hands hands

    chorus.....

    lay her down as priestess
    should the lord be a countin
    will be end my honor make it pain, painfully quick
    promises are whispered in the age of darkness
    want to be enlightened like I wanna be told the end has come

    and the bell shakes aim directly at my head
    oh help me
    help me from myself

    and I listen for the porchse I drive the best
    nothin, i'll do this one myself

    oh oh oh oh, by myself
    MYSELF!

    YEEEAAHHH.... (I love this song)
    hey nanananana, hey there's something..
    repeat, repeat
    wanna back back it away

    and I listen...oooo...for the voice inside my head
    nothing, i'll do this one myself......
    ooohh, and the barren waste
    dig a shape
    aimed right at my head....
    (and so on)."
    Wow, I know the lyrics to that song, and it still sounds that way to me.
