[Verse 1]
See it happen to a couple of friends
Seen it happen and the message it sends
Taking off for what's an obvious fall
Just to see what all the fuss is about

[Bridge]
It's not your way
Not your way
It's not your way

[Verse 2]
Another habit says it's in love with you
Another habit says it's love's overdue
Another habit like an unwanted friend
I'm so happy with my righteous self

[Bridge]
It's not your way
Not your way
It's not your way

[Chorus]
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
I never thought you, never thought you

Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
I never thought you, never never thought you

[Break]
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Speaking as a child of the 90's

[Chorus]
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
I never thought you, never thought you

Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
Never thought you'd habit
I never thought you, never, never thought you

[Outro]
Never
Never me
Never you
Never me

Founded in 1990 in Seattle, Pearl Jam is one of the most successful bands out of the grunge movement, if not of the whole alternative rock scene from the early 90s. The group started with Stone Gossard (guitar) and Jeff Ament (bass), veterans of the proto-grunge scene, recording a demo along with local guitarist Mike McCready. Once the tape passed along, it attracted a San Diego-based singer, Eddie Vedder. Along with drummer Dave Krusen, they signed with Epic Records and released Ten in 1991, which by the following year was becoming one of the most successful debut albums ever.

Growing uncomfortable with success, the following albums went for a more anguished and experimental sound, and the band’s notorious activism had its most prominent case once they boycotted Ticketmaster, accusing them of price-gouging fans. In the meantime, various drummers passed through the band, with percussion only settling once Soundgarden’s Matt Cameron joined them in the tour for 1998’s Yield.

With 10 studio albums and various live recordings (including “Official Bootlegs” of basically every concert the band performed since 2000), Pearl Jam has sold nearly 32 million records in the U.S. and an estimated 60 million worldwide.
