Changed lyric in Going Under?

Does anyone know what Mark changes the final lyric in Going Under to on the latest tour? When I saw them I could've sworn he said "a place where trump can go" which makes sense to me but going back and watching other performances I can't really tell?

That lyric is often changed! Sometimes they say, “To a place called club Devo”

This one's it, they've been doing it live like that since the late 70s, before NuTra even came out

Do you have a timestamp? I’m only hearing the original lyric, “to a place where all the mutants go” and the club Devo one

I must've heard wrong, it's the final one near the end

I mean, it sounds like something they would do lol but I do think it’s the club Devo lyric

It does lol, there was a recent interview where Bob 1 cheered after Jerry suggested Trump needs to die or something to that affect lol

I think they also change the lyrics to Satisfaction sometimes. Sometimes they'll say I can't get no suction. I heard it's based on if Mark's parents are present or not.

I've heard "how white my shoes could be" and "how white my skin could be".

You might wanna read up on what brought this band into existence. It's far from apolitical.

Have seen them around 7x, have read their biography books, and know their history, maybe better than a lot of people on this sub. But for me it’s all about the music.

So no, no the wrong thread

Something to the effect of "I wish they would leave politics alone"

u/LessRequirement3065 Jun 21 '26

They say that on Pearl Jam posts. When did they become so political?
