Biography

The band formed by Jeff Ament, Bruce Fairweather and Stone Gossard following [a=Green River] splitting up. They received a lot of attention in Seattle and the beginnings of international interest with the 'Shine' EP. However, as they prepared to release their major label, debut album, the 'Apple', lead singer Andrew Wood overdosed on heroin and died, leaving the band in tatters. Stone and Jeff joined with [a=Soundgarden]'s Matt Cameron and Chris Cornell (Andy's roommate) to record the '[a=Temple Of The Dog]' tribute album, which also featured a young Eddie Vedder on some of the tracks. This led, in turn, to the formation of [a=Pearl Jam].

LYRICS

How did I get here?
What song did I sing?
And just what have I done
To deserve such a thing?
You say - I've heard all that before
So won't you give it up babe - stop using me
You say - I've heard all that before
So bring me an apple - I'm cryin'
I been persecuted - like a lying man

The spirit provides me
[?]
The spirit gives but it also can take away

You say - I've heard all that before
So won't you give it up babe - just stop using me boy
You say - I've heard all that before

So come bite the apple
I'm run down
Like Soddom to Gammorah, all dead now
So please stop to laugh, and pity me
My soul means well, but I'm sorry
My skin it is withered and I'm nervous, yes I am
My future was in my hands till I washed it all away
Washed it all away

Said, get along - little sister
Heard you're doin' well
Get along little sister
Doin' well
