Lyrics
He seemed shy and so confused
Describing someone as shy and confused.
Now that he's older, he's last year's news
As he's grown older, he's no longer relevant or interesting.
She is looking for somebody fresh and young
A woman seeks a partner who is new and youthful.
She is looking for someone less miserable
She desires someone less unhappy or troubled.
She's looking for somebody new
Continuing the search for a new partner.
Much better than Eddie Vedder
She wants someone much superior or more desirable than Eddie Vedder (Pearl Jam's lead singer).
His pictures used to line her locker
She used to keep pictures of Eddie Vedder in her locker.
But they don't hang there any longer
But she doesn't keep those pictures there anymore.
She has gone and burned them all
She has destroyed all the pictures she had of Eddie.
Eddie comes crashing down from the bathroom wall
Implies the rejection or removal of Eddie from her life.
Now she's looking for somebody cuter
She's seeking someone more attractive than Eddie.
Someone more fun who rides a scooter
Desiring a partner who is more enjoyable and perhaps carefree.
Eddie hides his face behind a jokeshop mask
Eddie uses a mask to hide or disguise his true self.
Eddie, you've missed the grade,
Eddie is being told he hasn't met expectations or standards.
you've failed the test
He has failed a test, likely in the context of being a suitable partner.
She's looking for somebody better
Continuing the search for a better partner.
Much better than Eddie Vedder
She wants someone far superior to Eddie Vedder.
There's got to be somebody better
Expressing the belief that there must be someone better than Eddie Vedder.
Much better than Eddie Vedder
Reiterating the search for someone much better than Eddie Vedder.
