When somethings gone
I wanna fight to get it back again.

I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me

If somethings old
I wanna put a bit of shining on it

I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good

I just find both songs to have pretty simple basic lyrics
in one, hes lost something / want it back
the other? hes gone, hopes someones waiting for him to come back

in one he wants to take something old and unwanted and make it good / new / wanted again
the other, he wants to take something thats general bad, and make it good / happy / wanted

I'm trying to think of instances of other artists with significant-sized back catalogs where a single song captures as much of their "essence" as Corduroy does with Pearl Jam. I'm talking sonically, thematically, performance-wise...

The Promised Land? Man on the Moon? Live Forever?

I'm thinking I'd add Fight the Power by Public Enemy to that list.

According to the title, it's El "Corduory". Which sounds like somebody in freezing weather trying to pronounce Corduroy.
