EDDIE VEDDER TOLD ME THERE'D BE DAYS LIKE THIS
c2010 Steven Wesley Guiles/New Cool Now ASCAP

I remember Eddie Vedder at the Sonic Youth Festival
He came after Cat Power, he had a mohawk and he played the ukulele
I was surprised that he played well

Eddie told me there'd be days like this
and with a sharpie he started at his wrist
the words he scribbled as he pulled back his sleeves
"there ain't nothin' that you can't believe"

At the time I didn't ask why I think I was overloaded
There were too many voices crowding,
I could not make out what they were meaning
I just came to see Malkmus play He was not as good as I had hoped

Eddie told me there'd be days like this
and with a sharpie he started at his wrist
the words he scribbled as he pulled back his sleeves
"there ain't nothin' that you can't believe"

Eddie told me there'd be days like this
and with a sharpie he started at his wrist
the words he scribbled as he pulled back his sleeves
"sometimes all that you can do is grieve"
"sometimes all that you can do is grieve"
