Marcy Playground - Saint Joe On The School Bus Lyrics

Eeeeeed mirraaaaaaaa

I had an Aunt Mary that I never got to meet, because she took her life before I was born. This song is bittersweet. I played it for my mom (Mary's sister), and she actually truly enjoyed it.

Jewel eyed judy

I luv marcy mercy playground there so underrated as a band pure talent in my eyes

Happy version of Failure

This song is much better than “Sex and Candy.” I remember first hearing this on the radio in the car with my friend when I was 17, and literally right after I said “I hate Marcy playground and that Sex and Candy song,” this played.

One of my favorite 90s songs

Who's st Joe?

This voice make me remember to cobbain.

TUNE!!!!!

Classic

Come, as you are!

Saint Joe he said he's never been
Dressed up like a woman
Saint Joe they said your dad is gay
They said your mom
She's a whore They said it 'til you
Were raw They said your mom
She's a bore They made her beg
Them for more My Aunt Mary
Aunt Mary
Aunt Mary says
They have the darkness there in their eyes
Saint Joe he said he's never been made
Up like a woman
Saint Joe the time is coming when...
When Mary never will return
When Mary never will come back here...
Yeah Mary never will return
O' Mary please
Come home
O' my aunt Mary
Aunt Mary
Aunt Mary says they have
The darkness there in their eyes

O' my aunt Mary
Aunt Mary
Aunt Mary says they have the darkness there
They have the family disease
They have the darkness there in their minds

Oh my god this song is brilliant

That's when me and Fred, first descoverd Kazoo, Mother Fuckers!

Tumbs up to men n women still enjoy this song!90s are awesome.

Tumbs up to men n women still enjoy this song!90s are awesome.

It was supposed to be a hit
But Lou Pearlman’s boy band empire overpowered them

Saint Joe he said he's never been 
Dressed up like a woman 
Saint Joe they said your dad is gay 
They said your mom 
She's a whore they said it 'till you 
Were raw they said your mom 
She's a bore they made her beg 
Them for more my Aunt Mary 
Aunt Mary 
Aunt Mary says 
They have the darkness there in their eyes 
Saint Joe he said he's never been made 
Up like a woman 
Saint Joe the time is coming when
When Mary never will return 
When Mary never will come back here
Yeah Mary never will return 
Oh Mary please 
Come home 
Oh my…

*The Nirvana song that never was.*

owen benjamin - that's why i'm here

Excellent video for an excellent song. I have had the album since '97, but just saw this. I am glad I did..

That Siberian Husky was trained to attack whenever it hears "Come As You Are"

As much as I love this song I don't think the lyrics have aged very well lmao

I like this band so much ❤️

Marcy Playground's best song

This video utterly fails to capture the tone of the song.

Welcome to most music videos

A classic

Que temón csmreeeeee !!! Waaaaa

Sounds like come as you are 🙄😑

Excellent comparison - love both songs.

Are you high?

this band defines the mid 90s....long live 90s alt

did Miss Crawly and Nick Goldsmith (Hammer And Tongs) directed this music video

sometimes mary can't return r.i.p.

this band and song is so badass and i cannot figure out why it doesnt have 50 mil views???

Somehow, I managed to miss all of these videos in the 90's! I guess I assumed that they only made one for Sex & Candy as their "flagship" title for the album, and never did any others. I'm glad to have finally found the others. I've always loved the thought provoking (if brief) tone of this band's music, and am pleased to add the visuals to the music I've enjoyed for years.

Love this album 😍

Pumped-Up Kicks: The Prequel.

Matt Wilson This song rocks harder!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁

That's not a wolf, that's a husky

Great tune

Rigged Neo-McCarthyism. Witch!

They say this so underrated well lets give em a try

Mpg vs Nirvana = not even close. These two bands are nothing alike.

@@listen to more music of Marcy playground>>>>

https://www.onebas.com/artist/11811/Marcy+Playground

Just saw these guys perform on Freemont St in Downtown LV. They shared a stage with Everclear and rocked! MOST.90'S.SHOW.EVER!

I did not realize this band was so good

Love Marcy >.<

Talented band, but this video was as if they took some random video footage and overlaid their song onto it.

Random, not clever non-sequitur randomness, just inexplicably random.

All their videos are random

Stopped listening to his a while ago. Decided to took my old CDs back. I really was missing this. Great band and Amazing song.

No I don't

God the're good

It doesn't sound like Nirvana it sounds like Marcy Playground those grunge riffs are just the sound of the 90's

WHAT A WEIRD VID LOL

bien ahí

that boy inside the dog stomach tho

come as you are vibes

ARE YOU OK?!?
*gives a thumbs up*
WHAT! XD

I love the drums in the song! One of my favorite bands from the 90's.

Who cares if they say St Joe's dad was gay, and his mom is a whore? This is still a good song!

This is the very best song in the world.

This album has got to be one of the most underrated of all time Most people only know Sex & Candy and there was soooo much more where that came from. Truth is, that wasn't nearly the best song on the album...and it's a good song for sure. Poppies, Cloak of Elvenkind, Sherry Fraser, THIS song and wow...not a bad track on the album at all.

It 's the first time I hear this band.What a good surprise.

Me too!

love me some marcy playground

Love this band 👍🏻

I would venture to say this didnt make it big due to the topic....very relevant today....were we prudes even in the 1990s

as bubbles would say "fucken decent"

Come as you are? :P

This band was great 👍 Wish I could to back in time - I'd take state

"Come! As you are! As a-" oh...wrong song...

I know this was a year ago, but that specific song isn't a good argument. Kurt took the beat from The Killing Joke's "The Eighties" and they took it from somewhere else.

Dread UV just both great bands. Wanderin’ Rambler is just causing the hate and pointless discussions.

great song

reminds me of lithium a little bit

I agree

I've always loved this song.

Why so many fucking down votes?

I F*cking love this damn song - I play it for everyone and I always hear the same thing - They never heard it...I cant believe this was not played over and over agai.

what a crap video for such an amazing song

one hit wonder my ass

Is this song a ripoff of "come as you are"?! I need answers here people

Great song but this video went south quickly lol

This song is stolen from Misfits - Helena

Buğrahan Etemoğlu The Marcy Playground album was two years prior...

I saw them live once at a little venue in CT. sex and candy was the song the record label crushed them with. they hated it as much as the radio beat it to death. poppies is better as is this.

aaron Poppies is my favorite track from this album as well. Shadow of Seattle is up there too

@Keith Letellier Shadow of Seattle is my favorite followed by Poppies

saw them back in 98 they were magnificent! this was always one of my favorites of theirs!!

Underrated as fuck

Great lyrics

sounds a little like nirvana

Its true. There was alot of that going on at this time.

EXACTLY

it was a grunge era back then

Youre dumb

So whats the moral to this song?

I my i opinion, this song is better than "Sex and Candy"

Wholeheartedly agreed. This and Poppies are my favorites from this album. Sex and Candy is good, but wayyyy too overplayed.

First few times I heard this I thought it was new Nirvana.

Agreed sir

Absolutely

2/11/2020 listening

one of the most underrated bands of all time!!!!!!!!!

They are still putting out albums. Good ones, too.

I had no idea.

Just got Marcy Playground on CD, holy shit it's good...

the chorus sounds like every cky song

Lol the boy that cried wolf XD

o instrumental da música soa como come as you are...

Does this sound a bit like Nirvana or is it me?

The 90's and on top of that it was one of the band's influence.

Y Nirvana a los Pixies y estos 2 a los Beatles. Q Mejor!!!

Is the school they filmed at the same one from Matilda?

actually it is, both this video and matilda were shot at n abandoned school named prichwood manner. prichwood manner has actually been used in over 200 videos/moives/ tv shows.

nah jk. but it might be the same school tho

Actually this video was filmed at Winchester public school in Toronto. It’s address is 15 prospect st I believe

i heard this on the radio today at work. i forgot about this kick ass song

Nice Video, i like it :X

I love this band! I only knew their hit "Sex and Candy" because it was played constantly in the 90s, but they have other great songs. I like the singer's voice. I find it soothing.

+Ripley2190 He has a voice that is easy to remember.

HAD to pull my 6 string acoustic and play this.

One of the most thought provoking albums of it's time. I still think it reaches where no one has dared to go to this day. Forever buried now in college radio...

docholiday13 great days that's for sure

citation needed

docholiday13 I don't think it's because of the government. It's probably because a lot of their songs have that folk feel, and that's just not mainstream.

Lol, damn gobirnment suppressing music. What kinda 70s weed are you smoking? I think you're giving this band more credit than it deserves. Good songs, sure, but not world changing.

Hey nice Ozma profile picture, dude

Love MP. This vid is still fun.

This is the song that made me buy the album back in the day. Great album.
