1: Blew

If you wouldn't mind I would like it blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like it loose
If you wouldn't care I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe

Is there another reason for your stay
Could you believe him when you discussed his stain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame

If you wouldn't mind I would like it blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like it loose
If you wouldn't care I would like to bleed
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe.

Is there another reason for your stay
Could you believe him when you discussed his stain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame

You could do anything (x8)

2: Floyd the Barber

Hello Cobain come on in
Floyd now says my hairy chin
Sit down in the chair don't be afraid
Steaming hot towel on my face

I'm ashamed
        
Barber ties me to the chair
I can't see I'm really scared
Floyd breathes hard I hear a zip
Pee pee pressed against my lips

I was ashamed
        
Lies and suffers in the room
Oh reality / Looking at me I presume
They take turns and cut me up
I die smothered and he's not

I was ashamed
        
3: About a Girl

I need an easy friend
I do whip her into land - ?
I don't think you fit this shoe
I do, won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free

I'm standing in your line
I do hope you have the time
I do pick a number too
I do keep a date with you

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free

I need an easy friend
I do whip her in to land
I do think you fit this shoe
I do won't you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
No I can't see you every night
Free
I do (x4)

4: School

Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
You're in high school again
No recess

5: Love Buzz

Would you believe me when I tell you
You are the queen of my heart
Please don't deceive me when I hurt you
Just ain't the way it seems

Can you feel my love buzz (x4)

6: Paper Cuts

When I'm feeling tired
She puts you through the door
I crawl towards the cursed alley
Sometimes I can't find my way
This curtain's (Kurt is?) spellbound (still round)
So get all that you can
A cool man is toughening/too plain
A good hosing down

When the hate in my field (ma)eternal all four
Cannot look me in the eyes
But I asked the years ham radio blew
And the car, twist, mouth, fear!  Yaaah!
I think so
I think so
I think so
Nirvana

Nirvana...

Back when 'twas a party
I scratched with my nails
I see now that she's just like me
Why do they not try to escape?
They bring out the holy ones
They pointed my way
They come with the flashing lights
And take my family away

An-gr-y later I am known to
Slap some friends of ridicule
My whole existence is for your fears
And that is why I'm here with you!
Don't taaaake
Me awaaaaay
You're round 
Nirvana
Nirvana
Nirvana

7: Negative Creep

This is out of our range (x3)

This is getting to be (x3)

I'm a negative creep (x3)
and I'm stoned
I'm a negative creep (x3)
and I'm

8: Scoff

In my eyes
I'm not lazy
In my face
It's not over
In your room
I'm not older
In your eyes
I'm not worth it
Gimme back my alcohol (x8)

(First:)
Give me all your... (x 6)

(First and second repetitions:)
Give me all your... (x 5)
Give me your
Love! (?)

Fuck!

9: Swap Meet

They need a lifestyle that is comfortable
They travel far to keep their stomachs full
They make a living off of arts and crafts
The conversations just would (n)ever laugh (?)
They make a deal when they come to town
The Sunday swap meet is a battle ground
She loves it more than he will ever know
He loves it more than he will ever show
Keeps his cigarettes close to his heart
Keeps her photographs close to her heart
Keeps the bus-i-ness close to the heart

10: Mr. Moustache

Fill me in on your new vision
Wake me up with indecision
Help me trust your mind and wisdom
Yes I eat cow I am not proud.

Show me how you question, question
Lead the way to my temptations
Take my hand and keep it clean
As I eat cow I am not proud.

Is it an easychair?
Oversized rock
I don't like you anyway
Silver metal box

I'm new
I'm new
(all again, then:)

I'm who?
I'm you--aaaahh!  Aaaah!

11: Sifting

Afraid to grade
Wouldn't it be fun?
Cross, self-loss
Wouldn't it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn't it be fun?
Some fear none
Wouldn't it be fun?

Your eyes
Treat yourself
Treat yourself

Don't have nothing for you 
Don't have nothing but for you

Smell the smell
Wouldn't it be fun?
Search for a church
Wouldn't it be fun?
Wet your bed
Wouldn't it be fun?
Cold is gold
Wouldn't it be fun?

Your eyes
Treat yourself
Treat yourself 

Don't have nothing for you
Don't have nothing for you 

12: Big Cheese

Big cheese make me
Mine says, "Go to the office"

Big cheese Make me
Mine says, "One that stays"

Black is black, straight back
Need more enemies
Show you all what a man is

Big lies make my
Mine says "Go to the office"

Big cheese Make me
Message?  What is it?

Black is black straight back
Need more enemies
She is glue how are you?

13: Downer

Put your sincerity
I've got a royalty
Defending your country
Wish away

I've had a lobotomy
Save your family
Surrealistic fantasy
Bad boy

Fight!

All we know is
Restitution
Living out your
Date of future
There's a hope
Please show me faster
Don't forget
To pass a riot

Somebody served a dinner
Much like I am
I know I can't
Make enough although
If you go along
I sing your song

Sickening pessimists
Picketing masses
Separated communists
Apocalyptic bastards
Rinkydink God
For putting me on this Earth
Being very frivolous
Death in mind

Nurse!

All we know is
Restitution
Living out your
Date of future
There's a hope
Please send it faster
Don't forget
To pass a riot

Somebody served a dinner
Much like I am
I know I can't
Make enough although
If you go along
I sing your song.

1: Smells Like Teen Spirit
 
Load up on guns and 
Bring your friends
It's fun to lose
And to pretend
She's over bored
And self assured
Oh no, I know 
A dirty word

hello, how low? (x bunch of times)

With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now
Entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now
Entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yeah

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

We could have all three

6: Polly
 
Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off of her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

It isn't me 
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

It isn't me 
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

{Polly said}
Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct

It isn't me 
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

7: Territorial Pissings
 
{intro thing}

When I was an alien
Cultures weren't opinions

Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
I had better wait

Never met a wise man
If so it's a woman

Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
I had better wait
Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
I had better wait

Just because you're paranoid
Don't mean they're not after you

Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
I had better wait
Gotta find a way
To find a way
When I'm there 
Gotta find a way
A better way
I had better wait
Gotta find a way
To find a way

8: Drain You
 
One baby to another says
I'm lucky to have met you
I don't care what you think unless
It is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
'cause I like you

With eyes so dilated
I've became your pupil
You've taught me everything
Without a poison apple
The water is so yellow
I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful
Vacuum out the fluids

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
'cause I like you
You 
You
You
You
You

One baby to another says
I'm lucky to have met you
I don't care what you think unless
It is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
Sloppy it lips to lips
You're my vitamins
'cause I'm like you

9: Lounge Act
 
Truth covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to but it wouldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing

I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more 
Than I could steal
I'll arrest myself
And wear a shield
I'll go out of my way
To prove I still 
Smell her on you

Don't, tell me what I wanna hear
Afraid of never knowning fear
Experience anything yoy need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
Until it's fucking gone

I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more 
Than I could steal
I'll arrest myself
And wear a shield
I'll go out of my way
To prove I still 
Smell her on you

Truth covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to but it wouldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing

I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more 
Than I could steal
I'll arrest myself
And wear a shield
I'll go out of my way
To make you a deal
We've make a pact
To learn from who
Ever we want
Without new rules
We'll share what's lost and what we grew
They'll go out of their way 
To prove they still
Smell her on you
They still, smell her on you
Smell her on you

10: Stay Away
 
Monkey See, monkey do
{I don't know why}
I'd rather be deal than cool
{I don't know why}
Every line ends in rhyme
{I don't know why}
Less is more, love is blind
{I don't know why}

Stay
Stay away
Stay away
Stay away

Give an inch, take a smile
{I don't know why}
Fashion shits, fashion stile
{I don't know why}
Throw it out and keep it in

Have to have poison skin
{I don't know why}

Stay

11: On A Plain
 
I'll start this off
Without any words
I got so high that
I scratched 'til I bled

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

The finest day
That I ever had
Was when I learned
To cry on command

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

My mother died
Every night
It's safe to say
Don't quote me on that

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

The black sheep got
Blackmailed again
Forgot to put
On the zip code

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

Somewhere I have heard this before
In a dream my memory has stored
As defense I'm neutered and spayed
What the hell am I trying to say?

It is now time
To make it unclear
To write off lines
That don't make a sense

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

One more special
Message to go
And then I'm done
And I can go home

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on aplain
I can't complain

12: Something In The Way
 
Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
But it's ok to eat fish
Cause they haven't any feelings

Something in the way
Ummmmm

Well he never reads and he never draws
And he never sleeps cuz he's got bad blood yeah
I'm a stain, I'm a stain, I'm a stain, I'm a stain

4: Been A Son
 
She should have stayed away from friends
She should have had more time to spend
She should have died when she was born
She should have worn the crown of thorns
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have stood out in the crowd
She should have made her mother proud
She should have fallen on her stance
She should have had another chance
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son

5: Turnaround
 
Take a step outside yourself
And turn around
Take a look at who you are
It's pretty scary
So silly
Revolting
You're not much
You can't do anything

Take a step outside the city
And turn around
Take a look at what you are
It is revolting
You're really nowhere
So wasteful
So foolish
Poppycock

Who said don't look back?
Don't believe 'em
Go for that crazy sounding restaurant 
'Cos they're gonna try and get behind you
Don't you let them do it
You know what I'm talking about?
You hear me talking?
You hear me talking?

It's pretty scary it's so revolting

Take a step outside the country
And turn around
Take a look at what you are
It is amazing
Take a good look
You're no big deal
You're so petty
It's lots

Take a step outside the planet
Turn around and around
Take a look at where you are
It's pretty scary

6: Molly's Lips
 
She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as she stays with me

She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as I stayed clean

Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips

7: Son of a Gun
 
Up up up and down
Turn turn turnaround
Round round roundabout
And over again
Gun gun son of a gun
You are the only one
Makes any difference what I say
The sun shines in the bedroom
When we play
The raining always starts
When you go away

I want some help
To help myself

9: Beeswax
 
Lying here sitting in front of a fire
Not only Megan said I could thrive on a shot
Grinning my manhood and judge the mantle
I cut it up for you
say hey hey
And I wake up
I got my do this way (3X)

She laughs about it
squeeking inflection when the wind blows just right
Dragging your thumbs of my shirt
How many jumps is in it 
Right hey
When I'm getting back
I got my do this way
{incomprehensible babble}

Hear my fucking hate
I got my do this way

If your world is getting ugly
Fiberglass situation is as can as cotton candy 
Sunning out to save a ranch you ovulate
Freedom and count out being wrong
I feel you will gladly take it anal
Filly sli reminds me of someone
I understand your fear for the Love Boat
Don't need to kneel
Save all the cho ho
And I get along
I got my feel this pay
I got a little tale
I got my do this way
{incomprehensible babble}
When you're getting in
I got my do this way

10: Downer
 
Put your sincerity
I've got a royalty
Defending your country
Wish away

I've had a lobotomy
Save your family
Surrealistic fantasy
Bad boy

Fight!

All we know is
Restitution
Living out your
Date of future
There's a hope
Please show me faster
Don't forget
To pass a riot

Somebody served a dinner
Much like I am
I know I can't
Make enough although
If you go along
I sing your song

Sickening pessimists
Picketing masses
Separated communists
Apocalyptic bastards
Rinkydink God
For putting me on this Earth
Being very frivolous
Death in mind

Nurse!

All we know is
Restitution
Living out your
Date of future
There's a hope
Please send it faster
Don't forget
To pass a riot

Somebody served a dinner
Much like I am
I know I can't 
Make enough although
If you go along
I sing your song.

11: Mexican Seafood
 
Oh, it's your face, it isn't even
true the jaws and claims
you entertain and chew the fungus mold
is my intraction
oh, it's only a, it is infection.
Only her tonight, until I pay
Only her tonight, I fell asleep
Oh, coming from, the diarrhea
Oh, her tired form
I come in peace and live a dirty book
on the cloudy class, fender burn, and become a childhood mess
Only her tonight, until I plea
Only her tonight, until I sing
Oh, take me back, lets just concise some
flies, bugs and fleas and even meal can't 
stain the vaseline
It's headed burger's out
in case it learns and takes it's childhood such

I was your mine, you were mine
I didn't mean you were, mine I was your (3X)
You're in a

13: Aero Zeppelin
 
What's the season of love if you can't have everything
what's the reason of love if you can lose everything
what's the meaning of love, it's a crime if anything
what's the meaning of love, it's grand, it's grand

How can a culture can forget it's plan of yesterday
and you swear it's not a trend
does it matter anyways
barely heat the top of friend like it moves everyday
you could shit upon the stairs
you'll be friends
you'll be friends
you'll be friends
you'll be friends

All the kids have laid it out
and it's back is probably
still it's subtle in the tape
keep a form on equally
now you know it's just the fact
where the world is nowadays
and the day is what we learn
does it matter anyways

14: Big Long Now
 
It's not cold enough
please put his side up
she is moon gray
can we show our faces now
I'm not in a string
she's not turning gray
simple as it seems
can we show our faces now
endless climb
I am blind
what can I hear
call a lie
speaking a phrase
instantly grown
I am blind
waiting in line
{again, substituting 'why am I sure' as the last line}

15: Aneurism
 
Come on over
Do the twist (aha)
Overdo it
Have a fit (aha)
Come on over
Shoot the shit (aha)
Love you so much
Makes me sick (aha)

Beat me out of me (beat up beat up)

She gave the perfect strain to my heart.

1993

1: Serve The Servants

Teenage angst has paid off well
Now I'm bored and old
Self-Appointed judges judge
More than they have sold

If she floats than she is not
A witch like we had thought
A down payment on another
One at salem's lot

Serve the servants - Oh no
That legendary divorce is such a bore

As my bones grew they did hurt
They hurt really bad
I tried hard to have a father
But instead I had a dad

I just want you to know that I
Don't hate you anymore
there is nothing I could say
that I haven't thought before

Serve the servants - oh no
That legendary divorce is such a bore

2: Scentless Apprentice

Like most babies smell like butter
his smell smelled like no other
he was born scentless and senseless
he was born a scentless apprentice

Go away - get away, get away, get a-way
every wet nurse refused to feed him
electrolytes smell like semen

I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets
there are countless formulas for pressing flowers

I lie in the soll and fertilize mushrooms
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume

You can't fire me because I quit
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit

3: Heart-Shaped Box

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for a week
I was drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back

Hey
Wait
I've got a new conplaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hate
Haight
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your prieless advice
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

4: Rape Me

Rape me, my friend             
Rape me again                  
                               
I'm not the only one           
Do it and do it Again          
                               
Waste me                       
Taste me, my friend            
                               
My favorite inside source      
I'll kiss your open sores      
Appreciate your concern        
You'll always stink and burn   
              
5: Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle

It's so relieving to know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing to hear you're asking wherever you get your way
I's so soothing to know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad

In her false withness, we hope you're still with us, to see if they gloar or
drown
Our favorite paitent, A display of patience, disease-covered Puget Sound
She'll come back as fire, to burn all the liars, and leave a blanket of ash
on the ground I muss teh comfort in being sad

6: Dumb

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun

I think I'm dumb
or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
my heart is broke
But I have some glue
help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around]
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And I have a hangover...Have a hangover

Skin the sun
Falkl asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun

7: Very Ape

I am buried up to my neck in
Contradictionary lies
I take pride as the kind of illiterature
I'm very ape and very nice

If you ever need anything please don't hesitate
to ask someone else first
I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive.
I've seen it all I was here first

Out of the ground
Into the sky
Out of the sky
Into he firt

8: Milk It

I am my own parasite
I don't need a host to live
We feed off of each other
We can share our endorphns
Doll steak, test meat

I won my own pet virus
I get to pet and name her
Her milk is my shit
My shit is her milk

Doll steak, test meat
Look on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Protector of the kennel
Ecto-plasma
Ecto-Skeletal
Obituary birthday
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery

9: Pennyroyal Tea

I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal tea
I'm anemic royalty
Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh enternally
I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm a liar and a thief

Sit and drink pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty
I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

10: Radio Friendly Unit Shifter

Use just once and destroy
Invasion of our piracy
Afterbirth of a nation
Starve without your skeleton key

I love you for what I am not
I do not want what I have got
A blanket acne'ed with ciggarette burns
Speak at once while taking turns
Second-rate third defree burns
What is wrong with me
What is what I need
What do I think I think
This had nothing to do with what you think
If you ever think at all
Bi-polar opposites attract
All of a sudden my water broke
hate, hate your enemies
Save, save your friends
Find, find your place
Speak, speak the truth

11: Tourette's

Cufk, Yish, Sips

12: All Apologies

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

In the sun
In the sun I feed as one
In the sun
In the sun
I'm married
buried
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqur scafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all we all are

1: About A Girl
   (Kurt Cobain) - Bleach
 
I need an easy friend
I do with a hand to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do what you have a clue

I'll take advantage while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night free
I do

I'm standing in your light
I do hope you have the time
I do pick up number two
I do keep a date with you

[Repeat chorus]

[Repeat first verse and chorus]

I can't see you every night free
I do,      I do,         I do

2: Come As You Are
    (Kurt Cobain) - Nevermind

Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is your
Don't be late, take a rest
As a friend
As an old memoria
memoria, memoria, memoria

Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend
As an old memoria
memoria, memoria, memoria

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

memoria, memoria, memoria, memoria

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun  [Repeat 5x]

3: Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam
   (Eugene Kelly/Francis McKee)

Jesus don't want me for a sunbeam
'Cause sunbeams are never made like me
Don't expect me to cry, for all the reasons you had to die
Don't ever ask your love of me 

Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for thee

4: Man Who Sold The World
   (David Bowie)
 
We passed upon the stairs,
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes -- I thought you died alone
A long long time ago

Oh no, not me,
We never lost control,
You're face to face,
With the man who sold the world

I laughed and shook his hand,
I made my way back home,
I searched for form and land,
Years and years I roamed,
I gazed a gazely stare,
We walked a million hills -- I must have died alone,
A long long time ago.

Who knows, not me,
I never lost control,
You're face, to face,
With the man who sold the world.

5: Pennyroyal Tea
   (Kurt Cobain) - In Utero

I'm on my time with everyone
I have very bad posture

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
I'm anemic royalty

Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld
So I can sigh eternally

I'm so tired I can't sleep
I'm anemic royalty
I'm a liar and a thief
I'm anemic royalty

I'm on warm milk and laxatives
Cherry-flavored antacids

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea
Distill the life that's inside of me
I'm anemic royalty
I'm anemic royalty

6: Dumb
   (Kurt Cobain) - In Utero
 
I'm not like them
But I can pretend
The sun is gone
But I have a light
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
Or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy [Repeat 3x]

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And I have a hangover

Have a hangover [Repeat 3x]

Skin the sun
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learned
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up

[Repeat first verse and chorus]

I think I'm dumb [Repeat 12x]

7: Polly
   (Kurt Cobain) - Nevermind

Polly Wants a Cracker
I think I should get off her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

It isn't me, we have some seed
Let me clip your dirty wings
Let me take a ride, don't hurt yourself
I want some help to help myself
I've got some rope, you have been told
I promise you, I've been true
Let me take a ride, don't hurt yourself
I want some help to help myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

[Repeat chorus]

Polly said
Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct

[Repeat chorus]

8: On A Plain
   (Kurt Cobain) - Nevermind

I'll start this off
Without any words
I got so high that
I scratched 'til I bled

Love myself
Better than you
I know it's wrong
So what should I do?

The finest day
That I ever had
Was when I learned
To cry on command

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

My mother died
Every night
It's safe to say
Don't quote me on that

The black sheep got
Blackmailed again
Forgot to put
On the zip code

[Repeat chorus]

Somewhere I have heard this before
In a dream my memory has stored
As defense I'm neutered and spayed
What the hell am I trying to say?

It is now time
To make it unclear
To write off lines
That don't make a sense

One more special
Message to go
And then I'm done
And I can go home

[Repeat chorus]

9: Something in the Way
   (Kurt Cobain) - Nevermind

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
But it's ok to eat fish
Cause they don't have any feelings

Something in the way,  Mmmm...
Something in the way, yeah,  Mmmm...
Something in the way,  Mmmm...
Something in the way, yeah,  Mmmm...

[Repeat verse]
[Repeat chorus 2x]

10: Plateau
   (Curt Kirkwoord)

Many a hand has scaled the grand old face of the plateau
Some belong to strangers and some to folks you know
Holy ghosts and talk show hosts are planted in the sand
To beautify the foothills and shake the many hands

There's nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop
And an illustrated book about birds
You see a lot up there but don't be scared
Who needs action when you got words

When you're finished with the mop then you can stop
And look at what you've done
The plateau's clean, no dirt to be seen
And the work it took was fun

[Repeat Chorus]

Well the many hands began to scan around for the next plateau
Some said it was in greenland and some in mexico
Others decided it was nowhere except for where they stood
But those were all just guesses, wouldn't help you if they
could

11: Oh Me
   (Curt Kirkwood)

If I had to lose a mile
If I had to touch feelings
I would lose my soul
The way I do

I don't have to think
I only have to do it
The results are always perfect
And that's old news

Would you like to hear my voice
Sweetened with emotion
Invented at your birth?

I can't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see
I formulate infinity
And store it deep inside of me

[Repeat verses and chorus]

12: Lake Of Fire
   (Curt Kirkwood)

Where do bad folks go when they die?
They don't go to heaven where the angels fly
They go down to the lake of fire and fry

Won't see 'em again till the fourth of july

I knew a lady who came from duluth
She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
And she flew away howling on the yellow moon

[Repeat Chorus]

Now the people cry and the people moan
And they look for a dry place to call their home
And try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils
Fight to claim them for their own

13: All Apologies
   (Kurt Cobain) - In Utero

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun
I'm married
Buried

I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqur scafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy

[Repeat Chorus]

I'm married
Buried, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

All in all we all are [Repeat 13x]
 
14: Where Did You Sleep Last Night
   (Huddie Ledbetter)

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through
 
My girl, my girl, where will you go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

Her husband, was a hard working man
Just about a mile from here
His head was found in a driving wheel
But his body never was found

My girl, my girl, where will ya go
I'm going where the cold wind blows
In the pines, the pines
The sun, the shine
I'll shiver the whole night through

1991

1: TURNAROUND

Take a step outside yourself
And turn around
Take a look at who you are
It's pretty scary
So silly
Revolting
You're not much
You can't do anything

Take a step outside the city
And turn around
Take a look at what you are
It is revolting
You're really nowhere
So wasteful
So foolish
Poppycock

Who said don't look back?
Don't believe 'em
Go for that Crazy Sam restaurant (?)
'Cos they're gonna try and get behind you
Don't you let them do it
You know what I'm talking about?
You hear me talking?
You hear me talking?

It's pretty scary it's so revolting

Take a step outside the country
And turn around
Take a look at what you are
It is amazing
Take a good look
You're no big deal
You're so petty
It's lots

Take a step outside the planet
Turn around and around
Take a look at where you are
It's pretty scary

2: ANEURISM

Come on over
Do the twist (aha)
Overdo it
Have a fit (aha)
Come on over
Shoot the shit (aha)
Love you so much
Makes me sick (aha)

Beat me out of me (beat up beat up)

She gives a perfect state of mind

3: D7

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Solo solo
Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday mayday
Gonna leave this region
They'll take me with them

Demented seven

4: TURNAROUND

Up up up and down
Turn turn turnaround
Round round roundabout
And over again
Gun gun son of a gun
You are the only one
Makes any difference what I say
The sun shines in the bedroom
When we play
The raining always starts
When you go away

5: EVEN IN HIS YOUTH

Even in his youth
Even in his youth
Even in his youth he was nothing

Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean
Kept his body clean going nowhere

Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed
Daddy was ashamed he was nothing

Smears the family name
Smears the family name
Smears the family name he was something

He was born for your crew
I've got nothing left to prove
If I die before I wake
Hope I don't come back a slave

Even in his youth, yeah yeah

6: MOLLY'S LIPS

She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as she stays with me

She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as I stayed clean

Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss

1: School

Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
Won't you believe it
It's just my luck
No recess
You're in high school again
No recess

2: Drain You

Album: Nevermind

One baby to another said,
I'm lucky to have met you
I don't care what you think
Unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
A travel through a tube
And end up in your infection

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours because I like you

With eyes so dilated,
I've became your pupil
You've taught me everything
Without a poison apple
The water is so yellow, I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful -
Vacuum out the fluids

Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins because I'm like you

3: Aneurysm

Album: Incesticide (remixed version)


Come on over and do the twist
Overdo it and have a fit
Love you so much it makes me sick
Come on over and do the twist

Beat me outta me (Beat it, beat it)

Come on over and do the twist
Over-do it and have a fit
Over-do it and have a fit
Love you so much it makes me sick
Come on over and shoot the shit

She keeps it pumpin' straight to my heart

4: Smells Like Teen Spirit

Album: Nevermind


Load up on guns and bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over bored and self assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low?

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low?

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

hello, hello, hello, how low?

With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yay, a denial

5: Been A Son

Album: Incesticide


She should have stayed away from friends
She should have had more time to spend
She should have died when she was born
She should have worn the crown of thorns
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have stood out in the crowd
She should have made her mother proud
She should have fallen on her stance
She should have had another chance
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son

6: Lithium

Album: Nevermind


I'm so happy because today
I've found my friends ...
They're in my head
I'm so ugly, but that's okay, 'cause so are you...
We've broken our mirrors
Sunday morning is everyday for all I care...
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze...
'Cause I've found god - yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm so lonely but that's okay I shaved my head...
And I'm not sad
And just maybe I'm to blame for all I've heard...
But I'm not sure
I'm so excited, I can't wait to meet you there...
But I don't care
I'm so horny but that's okay...
My will is good - yeah, yeah, yeah

I like it - I'm not gonna crack
I miss you - I'm not gonna crack
I love you - I'm not gonna crack
I kill you - I'm not gonna crack

7: Sliver

Album: Incesticide


Mom and dad went to a show
they dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed, said please, oh no

        Grandma take me home
        I wanna be alone

Had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatos and stuff like that
I couldn't chew my meats too good

She said, well, don't you start your crying
Go outside and ride your bike
thats what I did, I killed my toad

after dinner, I had ice cream
fell asleep, and watched TV
woke up in my mother's arms

        Grandma take me home
        I wanna be alone

This song is for lovers out there
And the little light in the trees
And all the flowers have gingivitis
And the birds fly happily
We're together once again my love

I need you back, oh baby baby
I can't explain just why we lost it from the start
Living without you girl, you'll only break my heart...

I can feel it I can hold it I can rub it I can shape it
I can mold it I can cut it I can taste it I can spank it
Beat it Masterbate it

I been looking for days now
Always hearing the same ol'
City boy won't you spank thru?
I can make you do things you won't think you ever could

9: Scentless Apprentice

Album: In Utero


Like most babies smell like butter
his smell smelled like no other
he was born scentless and senseless
he was born a scentless apprentice

Go away - get away, get away, get a-way
every wet nurse refused to feed him
electrolytes smell like semen

I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets
there are countless formulas for pressing flowers

I lie in the soll and fertilize mushrooms
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume

You can't fire me because I quit
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit

10: Heart-Shaped Box

Album: In Utero


She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black

Hey                                       }
Wait                                      }  (3x)
I got a new complaint                     }
Forever in debt to your priceless advice  }
your advice

Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

Hey                                       }
Wait                                      }  (3x)
I got a new complaint                     }
Forever in debt to your priceless advice  }

11: Milk It

Album: In Utero


I am my own parasite
I don't need a host to live
We feed off of each other
We can share our endorphns

Doll steak, test meat

I won my own pet virus
I get to pet and name her
Her milk is my shit
My shit is her milk

Doll steak, test meat

Look on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Protector of the kennel
Ecto-plasma
Ecto-skeletal
Obituary birthday
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery

12: Negative Creep

Album: Bleach


This is out of our reach... and it's grown
This is getting to be... drone
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned!

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more

This is out of our range... and it's crude
This is getting to be... like drone
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned!

Fuck! Yeah! Drone! Stoned!

13: Polly

Album: Nevermind, Incesticide [as "(New Wave) Polly"], Unplugged


Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off of her first
I think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

It isn't me
We have some seed
Let me clip
Your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself
I've got some rope
You have been told
I promise you
I have been true
Let me take a ride
Don't hurt yourself
I want some help
To help myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few

Polly says her back hurts
And she's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct

14: Breed

Album: Nevermind


I don't care if I'm old
I don't mind if I don't have a mind
Get away, get away from your home
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of a ghost

Even if you have
Even if you need
I don't mean to stare
We don't have to breed
We can plant a house
We can build a tree
I don't even care
We could have all three
She said

15: Tourette's

Cufk, Yish, Sips


16: Blew

Album: Bleach


If you wouldn't mind I would like it blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like it loose
If you wouldn't care I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe

Is there another reason for your stain
Could you believe him when you discussed his stain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame

You could do anything

Yes you're my favorite
Of my favors
You're my razor
Oh no

Hey!
And the situation wasn't quite
As intense as I thought
I need you around
To remind me when not to be calm (to remind me what not to become)
And the situation wasn't quite
As intense as I thought
I need you around
To remind me when not to be calm
Calm, calm, calm

Born In A Junkyard (Where Were You In '89, Leeds, 10/27/89)

Born in a junkyard (x8)

Gone

I'm long gone but I'll let you through
You may decide that it's not that good
I'm long gone but I'll let you leave
You may decide on stopping me

Curmudgeon (Lithium single)

It's the season
I'm all reason
I have seen
All I have grown

Sheared at the seams
Cheat on me
And not seen
Cheat on me
At the seams

I'm a lender
I'm a planter
I put something
In the garden

In the handle
On the mantle
I'm not Santa
I'm not God

I want a lady
Can you save me?
It's the sulfur
I have grown
Tis the season
I'm all reason
I have fleas
All I have hoed

---[Interpreation 2]
I can handle, on the mantle
I'm not sad, 'til I'm home

'Tis the season, and I'm all reason
I have seen and I have grown

She's at the seams

She don't need (x3)
In the seams (x3)
She don't need
Not the seams

I'm a lecher, on the planter
I've set something in the (guard)

In the handle, on the mantle
I'm not Santa, I'm as (good)

She's at the seams
She don't need (x4)
Nothin' seems
At the seams (x2)
She don't need

(solo) My model lady, can you save me?
It's the sulfur I have drunk

'Tis the season, and I'm all reason
I have fleas, so run on home

She's at the seams
She don't need (x6)
At the seams (x2)
She don't need

Do You Love Me? (Kiss cover;C/Z tribute compilation)

But...
Do you love me?
Really love me?
Do you love me?

You like the credit cards and private planes
Money can really take you far
You like the hotels and fancy clothes
And the sound of electric guitars

You really like rock 'n' roll
All of the fame and the masquerade
You like the concerts and studios
And all the moeny honey that I make

Your backstage pass and black sunglasses
Make you look just like a queen
Even the fans they know your face
>From all of the magazines

Endless, Nameless (Non-Nevermind track called The End Of Music)

Take me, see I can
Silence, see I can
Silence, see I can

I really think so

The (yearning's) after peace,
I really think so

Gallons Of Rubbing Alcohol Flow Through The Strip (In Utero imports)

She's only been five months late,
even though we haven't had sex for a week.

A mil a day, a mil, I say. (meal)
And my heart's made my....

Somebody else already used the word aurora borealis.
She was tied up in chains, and Sam had helped her in the freezer.

She's only five weeks late,
and I haven't had a date forever..
. ever...ever...forever!

Wish I had more...more opportunity,
more chances to remember some things
so I couldn't have so much pressure on my...
on my...on my, um...ah, on my...um...um...head.

(solo) We'd have so much more diversity,
and so much more input, so much more creative flow,
if we had someone in school, a (GIT)...

GIT...geeks...in...town.
Ha!...Come on, Dave, think of one...
(Dave: inaudible)
It should be GIC, geeks with Charvels
No, GWC

Fuck, man, this is a waste of time!
(laughs) One more solo? Yeahhhhhhhhh! Yeaaaahhhhh!

(solo)

You're personally responsible for...
the entire strip...to be washed away....
cleansed...as if gallons of, um, rubbing alcohol
flowed through the strip and were set on fire

. It didn't just singe the hair, it made it straight.

And then Perry Ellis came along with his broom,
and his...silk...
and he...he erected a beautiful city...
a city of stars.

Help Me, I'm Hungry (unknown 1990 show & Melkweg, Amsterdam 11/5/89)

Lightning fucking around in my head
Fierce, dangerous, pathetic, fucked up
People freakin' every day

Cold, naked man, picked off his scabs, and
Fed them, to the pigeons

Here She Comes Now (Velvet Underground cover;VU tribute)

I Hate Myself And Want To Die (B&B compilation)

In the someday -- What's that sound?
End it someday -- What's that song?

Broken heart and broken bones
Finger pressing down the horse pills (Finger plaster-cast of the horse pills)
One more quirky cliched phrase
You're the one I wanna refill (You don't wanna wanna read them)

(spoken very softly behind the guitar)

(Words are broken lives)
Five pieces of board, turned around
attached to the skull by common wood screws
A child would like to do it

In His Room

See the stab wounds in his hands
See him dying in his room
He's dying in his room
He's dying in his room
Heading for me, heading this way
He is coming, I don't care

I don't want to thank you, well I don't mind
Gave his only pleasures to a friend of mine
He's not gonna catch you in a lighted room
You don't thank him I know I should

See the stab wounds in his hands
You killed him, I don't care
Keep a promise, you would too
Keep a promise, you would too
See the silence in his head
He is coming, I don't care

We're not gonna make it, well I don't mind
They don't want to thank him, they don't have any time
In a conversation whom they don't know
They don't have any patience, they're becoming slow

See a famine in his head
See him coming at their heels
He loves you, give him a chance
I don't love him, I don't care
See him starving, give her hell
It is over, we don't care In His Room

Marigold (Heart Shaped Box single)

He's scared in case I want it all
He's scared cause I want

All in all the clock is slow
Six color pictures all in a row
Of a marigold

He's there in case I want it all
He's scared cause I want

He's there in case I want it all
He's there cause I want

Moist Vagina (All Apologies single)

I prefer her to any other
Marijuana

The Money Will Roll Right In (Mudhoney cover, Reading Festival 1992)

I want to be a star, I'm going to have a car
And you'll have to admit, I'll be rich as shit
I'll just sit and grin, the money will roll right in

I would give you some, if you only would have treated me nice
You'll wish that you did, you'll feel pretty stupid
I'll just sit and grin, the money will roll right in

It's fun to be a star, it's nice to have a car
Yeah, you'll have to admit, that I'll be rich as shit
And I'll just sit and grin, the money will roll right in

The money will roll right in

I can feel it
I can hold it
I can mend it (bend it)
I can shape it
I can mold it
I can cut it
I can taste it (paste it)
I can spank it
Beat it, masturbate it

I can make it do things you wouldn't think it ever could

Spectre (1989 Barnyard Demos)

Remained in seclusion

Family is circuling
He having moved up (Hearing every movement)
All the styles of heresy (By the size of the milisead)
Finally he appeared unexpectedly
Looking for company

Lay down easy
Right outside in the snow

Token Eastern Song (commonly known as Happy Hour on bootlegs, Virgin Songs)

Is it me, or my ego (Isn't me)

Write some words, make them rhyme
This is for the story line
Set the mood, something new

Is it me, or my attitude?

If you want
To put on (To belong)
And it meant (Have you been)
The extremes
Acted out (Happy Hour)
Practicing (Practice sing)
Perfecting (Perfect team)
Break to read (Talk to me)
On to me (After me, until me)

I can wait in the fire (I will raise an effect)
I can explain your cycle (To explain to sight)
Vital Signs (By the time)
With your breath I will show you mine (The lass is ...)
I stink in here my boy

---[Interpretation 2]
I can read, I can write
I can breed, proven flight
It's my greed, (truth) unfold Is it me, or my ego?

Write some words, make them rhyme
Pieces for, assembly line
Set the mood, something new
Is it me, or my attitude?

(scream)

If you want, to belong
And you miss, the extremes
The extremes, act it out
Practicing, perfecting
Pressuring, undo me
Undo me, undo me

I will wade, in the fire
To explain, your asylum
Idle times, analyzing
We'll compare, all our (sightings) -- come on!

Lost grace, to hear, my voice

I can read, I can write
I can breathe, proven fact
This might be, recent clone
Is it me, or my ego?

Write some words, make them rhyme
Pieces for, story line
Set the mood, something new
Is it me, or my attitude?

(scream)

If you want, to belong
And you miss, the extremes
The extremes, act it out
Practicing, perfecting
Pressuring, undo me
undo me, undo me
undo me, undo me
undo me, undo me -- uhhhhh!
