Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
The waiting drove me mad,
You're finally here and I'm a mess.
I take your entrance back,
Can't let you roam inside my head.
I don't want to take what you can give,
I would rather starve than eat your bread,
I would rather run but I can't walk,
Guess I'll lie alone just like before.

I'll take the varmint's path,
Oh, and I must refuse your test.
Push me and I will resist.
This behavior's not unique.

I don't want to hear from those who know,
They can buy, but can't put on my clothes.
I don't want to limp for them to walk,
Never would have known of me before.
I don't want to be held in your debt,
I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed.
I'm already cut up and half-dead.
I'll end up alone like I began.

Everything has chains.
Absolutely nothing's changed.
Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture...

I don't want to take what you can give,
I would rather starve than eat your breast.
All the things that others want for me,
Can't buy what I want because it's free,
Can't buy what I want because it's free,
Can't be what you want because I'm...

Why ain't it supposed to be just fun?
Oh, to live and die, let it be done.
I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began.

It's your move now.
I thought you were a friend,
But I guess I... I guess I hate you...

Given to Fly (03:53)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
He could have tuned in, tuned in, but he tuned out
a bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
he got up out of there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean
had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
Wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw,
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now..."
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, oh oh...

He's flying! Woah!
Whole! Woah! Oh...

Floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
his key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped, and then he was stabbed
by faceless men, well...fuckers, he still stands.
And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
the love he recieves is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
a human being that was given to fly

Flying! Woah...
Whole! Flying! Woah...
Flying Woah...
Oh Woah...

Hail, Hail (03:43)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Ah, is there room for both of us?
Both of us apart?
Are we bound out of obligation?
Is that all we've got?

I get the words and then I get to thinking.
I don't wanna think, I wanna feel.
How do I feel?
How do I?

If you're the only one, will I never be enough, yeah.
Hail, hail the lucky ones.
I refer to those in love, yeah.

Oh, how I'd love you till the day I die... and beyond.
Are we going to the same place?
If so, can I come?
It's egg rolling, thick and heavy.
All the past we carry.
Oh, I could be new.
You under-estimate me.

If you're the only one, will I never be enough, yeah.
Hail, hail the lucky ones.
I refer to those in love, yeah.

I sometimes realize I could only be as good as you'll let me.
Are you woman enough to be my man?
Bandaged hand in hand.

Black lining,
On the run in a race that can't be won, yeah.

Oh, hail, hail the lucky ones.
I refer to those in love, yeah.

If you're my only one...
So good, you, only one...
I want to be your one...
Enough, you won, your one, your one...

Daughter (06:47)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Alone, listless, breakfast table in an otherwise empty room.
Young girl, violence, center of her own attention.
Mother reads aloud, child tries to understand it, tries to make her proud.
The shades go down inside her head.
Painted room, can't deny there's something wrong.

Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me...

She holds the hand that holds her down.
She will rise above.

Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me daughter, not fit to.
The picture kept will remind me.
Don't call me...

The shades go down...
The shades go down...
The shades go...
Go...

Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town (03:49)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
I seem to recognize your face.
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it.
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name.
Lifetimes are catching up with me.
All these changes taking place,
I wish I'd seen the place, but no one's ever taken me.
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...

I swear I recognize your breath.
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising.
Me you wouldn't recall, for I'm not my former.
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf.
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate.
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see.
I just wanna scream hello.
My god, it's been so long, never dreamed you'd return.
But now here you are, and here I am.
Hearts and thoughts they fade away.

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade...

MFC (02:28)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Sliding out of reverse into drive, this
Wheel will be turning right, then straight
Off in the sunset she'll ride
She can remember a time denied
Stood by the side of the road, spilled like wine now
She's out on her own and I'm high

There's no leaving here
Ask- I'm an ear
She's disappeared

They said that timing was everything
Made him want to be everywhere
There's a lot to be said for nowhere

There's no leaving here
Ask- I'm an ear
He's disappeared
There's no leaving here
Ask- I'm an ear
Fuck it- we've disappeared

Go (02:41)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Oh, please, don't go out on me, don't go on me now.
Never acted up before, don't go on me now.
I swear I never took it for granted, just thought of it now.
Suppose I abused you, just passing it on.
Go...
Fuck...

Once fastened, servile.
Now you're getting sharp.
Moving oh so swiftly with such disarm.
I pulled the covers over him, should've pulled the alarm.
Turned to my nemesis, a full-on-fucking god.

No...
Time...
Suck...
My...

Please don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.

Please...
Oh...
Suck...
Blood...
Touch...
Please...
Tunnel vision...
Tuck...
Time...
See...

Please, please, please...
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Don't go on me.
Please, don't you want me?
Don't go on me.
Please, don't go on me.

Red Mosquito (04:02)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Watched from the window with a red mosquito,
I was not allowed to leave the room.
I saw the sun go down, and now it's comin' up,
Somewhere in the time between.

I was bitten, must have been the devil,
He was just payin' me a little visit,
A-reminding me of his presence,
Lettin' me know he's a-waitin' for me...

Red man's your neighbor, call it behavior,
While you're climbing up slippery hills,
Two steps ahead of him, punctures in your neck,
Hoverin' just above your bed...
Hoverin' just above your bed...

I was bitten, must have been the devil,
He was just payin' me a little visit,
A-reminding me of his presence,
Lettin' me know he's a-waitin', he's a-waitin' for me.

If I had known then what I know now...

Even Flow (05:17)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete, again.
Oh, feelin' maybe he'll see a little better, set a days, ooh, yeah.
Oh, hand out, faces that he sees time again ain't that familiar, oh yeah.
Oh, dark grin, he can't help, when he's happy looks insane, oh yeah.

Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies.
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away.
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again.
Life again, life again...

Kneelin', looking through the paper though he doesn't know to read, ooh yeah.
Oh, prayin', now to something that has never showed him anything.
Oh, feelin', understands the weather of the winters on its way.
Oh, ceilings, few and far between all the legal halls of shame, yeah.

Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies.
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away.
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again.
Whispering hands, gently lead him away.
Him away, him away...
Yeah!
Woo...ah yeah...fuck it up...

Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies.
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away.
Someday yet, he'll begin his life again, yeah.

Nothingman (04:38)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Once divided, nothing left to subtract.
Some words when spoken can't be taken back.
Walks on his own with thoughts he can't help thinking.
Future's above, but in the past, he's slow and sinking.
Caught a bolt 'a lightning, cursed the day he let it go...

Nothingman...
Nothingman...
Isn't it something?
Nothingman...

She once believed in every story he had to tell,
One day she stiffened, took the other side.
Empty stares from each corner of a shared prison cell...
One just escapes, one's left inside the well...
And he who forgets will be destined to remember...

Nothingman...
Nothingman...
Isn't it something?
Nothingman...

Oh, she don't want him...
Oh, she won't feed him after he's flown away...
Oh, into the sun, ah, into the sun...

Burn, burn...
Nothingman...
Nothingman...
Isn't it something?
Nothingman...
Nothingman...
Nothingman...
Could've been something.
Nothingman...
Oh... oh... oh...

Do the Evolution (03:45)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
I'm ahead, I'm a man
I'm the first mammal to wear pants, yeah
I'm at peace with my lust
I can kill 'cause in god I trust, yeah
It's evolution, baby

I'm at peace, I'm the man
Buying stocks on the day of the crash, yeah
On the loose, I'm a truck
All the rolling hills, I'll flatten them out, yeah
It's herd behavior, uh huh
It's evolution, baby

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my son, he's my clone
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
This land is mine, this land is free
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly
It's evolution, baby

I'm a thief, I'm a liar
There's my church, I sing in the choir:
Hal-le-lu-jah
Hal-le-lu-jah

Admire me, admire my home
Admire my son, admire my clones
Cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast
Those ignorant Indians got nothing on me
Nothin', why?
Because, it's evolution, baby!

I am ahead, I am advanced
I am the first mammal to make plans, yeah
I crawled the Earth, but now I'm higher
2010, watch it go to fire
It's evolution, baby
It's evolution, baby
Do the evolution!
Come on
C'mon, c'mon!

Better Man (04:06)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o' clock, it's got to stop.
Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech.
As he opens the door, she rolls over, pretends to sleep as he looks her over.

She lies and says she's in love with him.
Can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Ohh...

Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know...
She tells herself, oh...

Memories back when she was smooth and strong, and waiting for the world to come along.
Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone.
and she swears he's cool.

She lies and says she's in love with him.
Can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red.
Can't find a better man.
She lies and says she still loves him.
Can't find a better man.
She dreams in color, she dreams in red.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Yeah...

She loved him, yeah...
She don't want to leave this way.
She feeds him, yeah...
That's why she'll be back again.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better man.
Can't find a better...man...

Black (06:55)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay,
Her legs spread out before me as her body was still.
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the Earth to the Sun.
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn.
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything.
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore.
And now my bitter hands shake beneath the clouds of what was everything.
All the pictures have all been washed in black,
Tattooed everything...

I take a walk outside,
I'm surrounded by some kids at play.
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear?
And twisted thoughts that spin round my head,
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning...
How quick the sun can drop away,
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass of what was everything.
All the pictures have all been washed in black,
Tattooed everything...

All the love gone bad turned my world to black,
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be, yeah.

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky,
But why, why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine?

Fuckin' Up (06:17)
Pearl Jam • Live on Two Legs
Lonely drifter on the hill. Why do I?
One must have a heart of steel. Why do I?
It's not how you look, but how you feel. Why do I?
You must have a heart of steel. Why do I?
Why do I keep fucking up?

I can see you on the hill. Why do I?
All comatose but walking still. Why do I?
Flowing curves beneath your flowing gown. Why do I?
Oh, only I can bring myself down. Why do I?
Why do I keep fuckin up?

Bowman's pick and dogs that bite. Why do I?
Oh, dogs that howl through the night. Why do I?
Oh, broken leashes all over the floor. Why do I?
Keys left hanging in a swinging door. Why do I?
Why do I keep fucking up?
