(Track 14)

"Hey Foxymophandlemama, That's Me" (also known as "Stupid Mop") is the final track from Pearl Jam's 1994 album Vitalogy. It is the longest track on Vitalogy, clocking in at seven and a half minutes.

"Hey Foxymophandlemama, That's Me" is essentially just a lot of distorted feedback, some drumming, and mixed, distorted and looped recordings of real patients from a mental hospital.[1] The song is filled with odd sayings and rants, with the final remarks being another person asking, "Do you ever think that you would actually kill yourself?" The person replies with, "Well, if I thought about it, uhh, real deep, yes, I believe I would."

The song was recorded after drummer Dave Abbruzzese had left the band. It features his replacement Jack Irons' only performance on the album. Stone Gossard and Mike McCready do not play on the track at all.
