Evenflow

Today the song Evenflow played on my Pandora playlist, and as I was listening I realized I have no idea what this song is about. I was going to look up the lyrics, but I decided to find the song and listen to it again first. I thought it might be fun to see if I could figure out what the song is about before reading the lyrics. For anyone familiar with Pearl Jam, you will note that it is rather difficult to decipher anything Eddie Vedder says. You might also note it is even more difficult to decipher anything Eddie Vedder sings.

Here is the link if you'd like to try this for yourself. See if you hear what I heard.

Here is the nonsense I heard:

Be there, razzed his hat in a pillow made of concrete. Again.
Oh, Be there, maybe he’ll see a little better than a daisy. Ah yeah.
Oh, hey now, big daddy bees, can a mayonnaise on the mirror. Uh.
Oh no crayon, he can’t help when he’s happy. Look at his aim. Yeah?

Evenflow, cuz your words are butterflies yeah.
Oh shee don’t know, she’ll be bakin’ me a cake yeah.
Oh Sunday games, he’ll be give his life again.
Life or dyeah. Life or dyeah.

Kneeling, looking through the paper though he doesn’t know to read it. ah yeah.
Oh Brian, I just hope it matters. Never soda with anything. Girl.
Aw Healin, depends on the weather if the waiter is on his way. Oh yeah.
Oh oh oh Healing, see a Bob between a paralegal on a swing.

Evenflow, on the run like butterflies yeah.
Oh we don’t know, so he chases them away yeah.
On Sunday yeah, he’ll begin his life again.
Oh a different ham, really eats him away. Eats him away. Him away. Yeah!

Evenflow, on the run like butterflies yeah.
Oh we don’t know, so he chases them away yeah.
On Sunday yeah, he’ll begin his life again. Oh a different ham, really eats him away. Eats him away. Him away.


Needless to say, from my interpretation of the lyrics the song didn't really.. speak to me, persay.


Oh, and here are the actual lyrics:

Freezin', rests his head on a pillow made of concrete, again.
Oh, Feelin' maybe he'll see a little betters any days.
Oh, head down, faces that he sees don't look it ain't that familiar.
Oh, girlfriend he can't have when he's happy looks insane, oh yeah.

Evenflow, 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.
Prayin', now to something that has never showed him anything.
Oh, feelin', understands the weather or that winters on itsway. yeah.
Oh, ceilins, people fall between all the legal halls of shame.

Evenflow, thoughts arrive like butterflies.
Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away yeah.
Oh someday yet, he'll begin his life again.
Whispering hands, carry him away. Him away. Him away.

Oh, he don't know, so he chases them away yeah.
Oh someday yet, he'll begin his life again.
Whispering hands, carry him away. Him away. Him away.




So... there's that. Happy Tuesday.
