Subject: Pearl Jam's "Corduroy" - am i right: "spilled my teacher"?

Hey!

What's the true lyric in Pearl Jam's "Corduroy": "Spilled my teacher" or "Spilled my tincture"?

'not my picture' is the preceeding line and neither tincture nor teacher perfectly rhymes with picture. Not that Pearl Jam is known for rhyming...

Listening to the rearviewmirror GH CD I honestly can't tell, though "spilled my teacher" makes no sense. Sounds like teacher though since I can't hear an 'n' sound in there. Both are listed on lyrics sheets and teacher is listed first. If I had to put money on it I'd go with "spilled my teacher". All bets are off though when it comes to decyphering what Eddie sings.  ;D
