    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...

    Beavis : Is this Pearl Jam?
    Butt-head: This guy makes faces like Eddie Vedder.
    Beavis: No, Eddie Vedder makes faces like this guy.
    Butt-head: I heard these guys, like, came first and Pearl Jam ripped them off.
    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...

    saltines! saltines! saltines! CLEARER

    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.
