Founded by Farrell and original bass guitarist Eric Avery, following the disintegration of Farrell's previous band Psi Com, Jane's Addiction was one of the first bands from the early 1990s alternative rock movement to gain both mainstream media attention and commercial success in the United States. Jane's Addiction's first release was a self-titled live album in 1987 and quickly caught the attention of Warner Bros. Records. The band's first two studio albums, Nothing's Shocking (1988) and Ritual de lo habitual (1990), were released to widespread critical acclaim, and an increasing cult fanbase. As a result, Jane's Addiction became icons of what Farrell dubbed the "Alternative Nation". The band's initial farewell tour, in 1991, launched the first Lollapalooza, which has since become a perennial alternative rock festival.
The band briefly reunited in 1997, with Flea, of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, replacing Avery on bass guitar. In 2001, a second reunion took place, with Martyn LeNoble—and later Chris Chaney—occupying the role of bass guitarist. In 2003, the band released its third studio album, Strays, before dissolving again the following year.
In 2008, the band's original line-up reunited and embarked on a world tour. Eric Avery, however, subsequently left the band in early 2010 as the group began working on new material. The band released its fourth studio album The Great Escape Artist in 2011, with Chaney returning to the band for its recording and subsequent tour. In 2016, Jane's Addiction were nominated for induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Been Caught Stealing
Jane's Addiction Lyrics
I've been caught stealing
Once when I was 5
I enjoy stealing
It's just as simple as that
Well, it's just a simple fact
When I want something,
I don't want to pay for it
I walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey all right!
If I get by, it's mine
Mine all mine!
My girl, she's one too
She'll go and get her a shirt
Stick it under her skirt
She grabbed a razor for me
And she did it just like that
When she wants something, she don't want to pay for it
She walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey all right!
If I get by, it's mine
Mine all mine!
We sat around the pile
We sat and laughed
We sat and laughed and waved it into the air!
And we did it just like that
When we want something, we don't want to pay for it
We walk right through the door
Walk right through the door
Hey, all right!
If I get by, it's mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine. . .

I've been caught stealing, once, when I was five.
I enjoy stealing, it's just as simple as that.
Well it's, just a, simple fact,
When I want something, man,
I don't wanna pay for it.
I walk right, through the door, and I walk right through the door.
Hey all right!
If I get by...
It's mine,
Mine, all mine!
My girl, she's one too.
She'll go and get her a skirt, stick it under her shirt.
She grabbed a razor for me.
And she. did it, just like that.
When she wants something, man, she don't wanna pay for it!
She'll walk right, through the door, walk right through the door.
Hey all right!
If I get by...
It's mine,
Mine, all mine!
Let's go!
We sat around the pile.
We sat and laughed.
We sat and laughed and waved it into the air.
And we, did it, just like that.
When we want something, man,
We don't wanna pay for it.
We walk right, through the door, walk right through the door.
Hey, all right!
If I get by.
It's mine,
Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine.
It's mine.
