You know just how to hard rock
And you know just how to cry
You know just how to spread a message
And just how to catch the eye
You are the fave of thousands
You're a mystery to me
You can write songs as weird as "Bugs"
And as profound as "Jeremy"
You know when to make a statement
And you know when to shut up
You know how to make an impact
And you know when to be abrupt
And your group is a unique group
Eddie Vedder is the man
I can never write a ballad that'll really do you justice
But I'm doing the best job I can
And you sing of life's unfairness
And write songs on this and that
You placed one and twenty on the list of hard rockers
But you should have gotten higher than that
And I hope you never sell out
And I hope you never fall
And I'm not sure how you do it
Making grunge out of nothing at all

Chorus:
Out of nothing at all (making grunge)
Out of nothing at all (making grunge)
Out of nothing at all (making grunge)
Out of nothing at all (making grunge)
Making grunge out of nothing at all

Everytime they show you all the beams of the light are
Streaming through the waves of your hair
And that weird grin on your face and every gleam in
Your eyes gives me a fright
The children of this country are sad and they're lost
And they're looking for a grunge band like you
You can take the darkness and the pain of the night
And change it to a song chock full of profound insight
You guys can really rock; Don't really like hard rock
But I've really gotta hand it to you
Think you guys are really something
You can really talk the talk
You're not a bunch of losers like some other bands
You can make all the music halls rock
You guys make some kids feel better
The minute they put your CDs or tapes on
It seems you have the power to soothe all their pain
And you can make all their demons begone
Now even though MTV may not like you
You guys can really make sense of it all
I can never really make it like you do
Making grunge out of nothing at all
