I just *love* this song :D It even had my fiance tapping his foot!

undone

last stop on the westcoast line
south of the northern border
one small corner on my mind
everybody, they know me there
don't get any second glances
chances are that they don't care
the world has come undone
like to change it everyday
change don't come at once
it's a wave building before it breaks
can't wait for election day
witness the occupation
corporations rule the day
workin' on the pendulum throws
farther out to the one side, swinging
has to sweep back the other way
the world has come undone
another day and who can wait
change don't come at once
it's a wave building before it breaks
all this hope and nowhere to go
this is how i used to feel, but no more
the world has come undone
like a game few you can play
change don't come from one
it's a wave building before it breaks

    Great tune. I put it on a PJ mix for my girlfriend, and every time it comes one she says she really likes it.

    Is it just me or are the Riot Act B-sides simply awesome?

    Down
    Otherside
    Undone

    All great tunes!
    Makes much more sense to live in the Present Tense.

    No, I wouldn't say that you suck, but that's just plain sad. :( You have to hear Other Side.
    I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.

    My copy of Riot Act has Undone, Down & Otherside on it :) They are amongst the best songs on the album IMHO but it's also interesting to see how some people love certain songs that others detest.

    Unfortunately Love Boat Captain, Green Disease & Help Help didn't make the cut though on my Riot Act.

    Lost dogs is like icing on cake. It's the missing piece of the PEARL JAM puzzle. I feel so much more musically fulfilled now. I find myself listening to sad,undone, dead man, fatal,and otherside like I am never going to hear them again.
    we can dream, and we can make dreams come true for others

    What a GREAT song! It always forces me to get up and get down. In true Ed fashion, the lyrics are fuckin phenomenal. Very catchy and powerful song all in one. I love it more and more with each listen!

    Thank you PJ! The song starts out with a bang (love those drums) and it just keeps on bangin! And the pause into short little jam at the end is awesome. :)

    i am so happy to see this thread. undone is so catchy, it's hard not to like. it is one of eddie's best songs. and one of his best melody's. and you can bet they will be playing this one at the vote for change tour. i just hope they record it so i can hear it. this song is tops!!

    i didn't know what all the words were at first(thank god for pearl jam lyric sites) but the melody hooked me, and then i got to know all the words. great lyrics, great music. an instant favorite of mine. eddie rules!!

    i just looked over the lyrics and noticed a mnor mistake.
    ed sings "well you know, the pendulum throws..."
    it sounds better, doesn't it.

    but ya great, great lyrics.
