NIRVANA LYRICS

album: "Bleach" (1989)

"Blew"

If you wouldn't mind I would like to blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like to 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 who we knew was stress or strain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame

If you wouldn't mind I would like to blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like to loose
If you wouldn't care I would like to leave
If you wouldn't mind I would like to breathe
[x2]
Is there another reason for your stain
Could you believe who we knew was stress or strain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame
[x8] You could do anything

"Floyd The Barber"

Bell on door clanks - come on in
Floyd observes my hairy chin
Sit down (in the) chair, don't be afraid
Steamed hot towel on my face
I was shaved x3

Barney 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 shaved x3

I sense others in the room
Opie Aunt Bee, I presume
They take turns in cut me up
I die smothered in Andy's butt
I was shaved x3

"About A Girl"

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
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
Free - I do

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…

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do, won't you have a clue?

I'll take advantage…
No, I can't see you every night. Free - I do... [4x]

"School"

[x4] Won't you believe it. It's just my luck
[x3] No recess. [x4] Won't you believe it
It's just my luck . [x3] No recess
[x8] You're in high school again. [x7] No recess

"Love Buzz"

(originally by Shocking Blue)

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

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

"Paper Cuts"

When I'm feeling tired
She pushed food through the door
And I crawl towards the crack of light
Sometimes I can't find my way

Newspapers spread around
Soaking all that they can
A cleaning is due again
- a good hosing down

The lady whom I feel maternal love for
Cannot look me in the eyes
But I see hers and they are blue
And they cock and twitch and masturbate!
I said so [x3] Nirvana [x6]

Black windows of paint
I scratched with my nails
I see others just like me
Why do they not try to escape?

They bring out the older ones
They point in my way
They come with a flash of light
And take my family away

And very later I have learned
To accept some friends of ridicule
My whole existence is for your amusement
And that is why I'm here with you!

To take me with, you're right. Nirvana [x8]

"Negative Creep"

This is out of our reach [x3] and it's grown
This is getting to be [x3] drone
I'm a negative creep [x3] and I'm stoned!
I'm a negative creep [x3] and I'm ... [x2]
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x6]

This is out of our range [x3] and it's crude
This is getting to be [x3] like drone
I'm a negative creep [x3] and I'm stoned!
I'm a negative creep [x3] and I'm ... [x2]
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x6]

Fuck! Yeah! Drone! Stoned!
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x14]

"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 [x7]
Heal a million, kill a million [x3]

"Swap Meet"

[x3]
They lead a lifetime that is comfortable
They travel far to keep their stomachs full
They make their living off of arts and crafts
The kind with seashells, driftwood and burlap
They make a deal when they come to town
The Sunday swap meet is a battle ground
She loves him more than he will ever know
He loves her more than he will ever show

Keeps his cigarettes close to his heart
Keeps her photographs close to her heart
Keeps the bitterness close to the heart

"Mr. Moustache"

Fill me in on your new vision
Wake me up with indecision
Help me trust your might 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
Yes I eat cow - I am not proud

Is he in an easychair?
Oversized rock
I don't like you anyway
Seal it in a box [alt: Silver metal box]
I'm new [x2]

Fill me in on your new vision
Wake me up with indecision
Help me trust your might 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
Yes I eat cow - I am not proud

Is he in an easychair?
Oversized rock
I don't like you anyway
Seal it in a box [alt: Silver metal box]
[x2] I'm new / I'm you / Aaaahh!

"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 ... Teacher said,
Your eyes ... Teacher said,
Your eyes ... Teacher said, Preacher said

"Don't have nothing for you" [x7]

Spell the smell. Wouldn't it be fun?
Search for church. Wouldn't it be fun?
Wet your bed. Wouldn't it be fun?
Cold in coals. Wouldn't it be fun?

Your eyes ... Teacher said,

Your eyes ... Teacher said,
Your eyes ... Preacher said [x2]

"Don't have nothing for you" [x7] + [x9]

"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. Need more enemies

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?

Big cheese - make me. 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?

Black is black, straight back. Need more enemies
Sure you are, but what am I? Need more enemies

She is glue, how are you?. Need more enemies
Sure you are, but what am I?

"Downer"

Portray sincerity. Act out of loyalty
Defend every country. Wish away the pain
Hand out lobotomies. To save little families
Surrealistic fantasy. Bland, boring pain!

Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in master?
Don't feel guilty, master writing

Somebody said that they're not much like I am, I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along, I sing then some

Sickening pessimist hypocrite master
Conservative Communist apocalyptic bastard
Thank you dear God for putting me on this Earth
I feel very privileged in debt for my thirst!

Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in master?
Don't feel guilty, master writing

Somebody said that they're not much like I am, I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along, I sing then some

album: "Nevermind" (1991)

"Smells Like Teen Spirit"

Load up on guns, 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? [x3]
Hello, hello, hello!

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, hey, yay

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? [x3]
Hello, hello, hello!

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, hey, yay

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, never mind

Hello, hello, hello, how low? [x3]
Hello, hello, hello!

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 / A denial! [x9]

"In Bloom"

Sell the kids for food. Weather changes moods
Spring is here again. Reproductive glands

Hey - he's the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Don't know what it means, when I say:

He's the one
Who likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means when I say ah...

We can have some more - nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit - tender age in bloom

Hey - he's the one…
Knows not what it means [2x]
Knows not what it means when I say ah...

"Come As You Are"
("Nevermind" Version)

Come as you are, as you were, as I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend, as a known enemy

Take your time, hurry up, choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend, as an old memoria (x4)

Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria (x4)

When I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun. No I don't have a gun
Memoria, x4
(And I don't have a gun)
When I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

"Breed"

I don't care [x5] Care if I'm old
I don't mind [x5] Mind, don't have a mind
Get away [x4] Away, away from your home
I'm afraid [x5] Afraid, 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 could plant a house. We could build a tree
I don't even care. We could have all three
She said [x8]

I don't care [x5] Care if I'm old
I don't mind [x5] Mind, I don't have a mind
Get away [x4] Away, away from your home
I'm afraid [x4] Afraid, afraid of a ghost

Even if you have… (x2)
She said [x8] She said .. good!

"Lithium"

Yeah, yeah, yeah [6x]

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 [6x]
[2x]
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 killed you - I'm not gonna crack

I'm so happy 'cause 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 [Alt: We broke our mirrors]
Sunday morning is every day for all I care ...
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze ...
'Cause I've found god
Yeah, yeah, yeah [6x]
[2x]
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 killed you - I'm not gonna crack

"Polly"
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 cut yourself
I want some help. To please myself
I've got some rope. You have been told
I promise you. I have been true
Let me take a ride. Don't cut yourself
I want some help. To please myself

Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like some food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
It isn't me…

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…

"Territorial Pissings"

"Come on people now, smile on your brother and
everybody get together, try to love one another right now"

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
[x2]
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"
[x4]
Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I had better wait

"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
I like you

With eyes so dilated. I've become 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
I like you - You x5

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 lips to lips. You're my vitamins
I'm like you

"Lounge Act"

Truth - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to, but it couldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing
And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go out of my way to prove I still
I still smell her on you

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

And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go out of my way to prove I still
I still smell her on you

Truth! - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to but it couldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing
And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel and I
Wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself, I'll wear a shield
I'll go out of my way to make you a deal
We've made 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
Still smell her on you [x3]

"Stay Away"

Monkey see, monkey do
I don't know why I'd - rather be dead 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 [x3]

Give an inch, take a smile
I don't know why - fashion shits, fashion style
I don't know why - throw it out and keep it in
I don't know why - have to have poison skin
I don't know why

Stay - Stay away [x3] I don't why [x2]
Stay - Stay away [x3]

Monkey see, monkey do
I don't know why I'd - rather be dead 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 [x3] I don't know why [x2]
Stay - Stay away [x3] Stay away [x5] God is gay!

"On A Plain"

I'll start this off without any words
I got so high that I scratched 'till I bled
I 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 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
I 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
I 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 of memory restored (Alt: In a dream my memory has stored)
As a 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 sense
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

And one more special message to go
And then I'm done, then I can go home
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?
[x5] I'm on a plain I can't complain

"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
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings
[x3]
Something in the way, mmm
Something in the way, yeah, mmm

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak

[x4]
Something in the way, mmm
Something in the way, yeah, mmm

"Endless, Nameless"

Silence. Here I am. Here I am. Silent
Bright and clear. It's what I am
I have. Died. Mother [x4]
Death. With violence. Excitement. Right here
Died. Go to hell. Here I am. Right here
Ow! No mas [x4]

Death. Is what I am. Go to hell. Go to jail
In back of that. Crime. Here I am. Take a chance
Dead! Die!

EP: "Hormoaning" (1992)

"Turnaround" (originally by Devo)

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

Take a step outside the city
And you 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
'Cause 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 [x4] Naaaah !

Take a step outside the country
And you turn around
Take a look at what you are. It is amazing

You're so petty. It's a laugh

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

"(New Wave) Polly"

Polly wants a cracker

I think I should get off of her first
Maybe 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 please 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…

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…

"Beeswax" (other interpretations possible)

Why doesn't she need him for a father?
Not only maidens can occupy my shack
Goring my manhood turns a man off
Like Pepe LePew would say,
Hey, hey, hey! -- and then we clash!
I got my diddly spayed [x3] I got my diddly

She laughs about it
Shrinking inflections if the wind blows just right
Jacking themselves off polyester
I wanna jump, this isn't right!
Hey, when am I getting it back?

I got my diddly spayed [x3] I got my diddly

I don't know why,
I've got a joke too silly to say
Don't touch the balls
I got a dick, Dick -- hear my fucking hate!

I got my diddly spayed [x3] I got my diddly

If you're wondering, it's gaining monthly
Fiberglass insulated, the sky is cotton candy
Spawning downstream, El Rancho Ovulate
Feeling can't help me romp

Bill just fuck me, take me anal
Billy's slit reminds me of someone
I'm sick of paying for the love boat
Tony and Tenille say wanna jump rope

And I say look!

I got my penis spayed, I got a little tail,
I got my dingaling spayed, I got my dingaling spayed
I gotta be around pussy. Don't let me fall
I got a heh-heh ... well you can't live

We got my dingaling spayed [x6]
I got my dingaling spayed [x5] I got my diddly

"Downer"

Portray sincerity. Act out of loyalty
Defend every country. Wish away the pain
Hand out lobotomies. To save little families
Surrealistic fantasy. Bland, boring pain!

Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in master?
Don't feel guilty, master writing

Somebody said that they're not much like I am, I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along, I sing then some

Sickening pessimist hypocrite master
Conservative Communist apocalyptic bastard
Thank you dear God for putting me on this Earth
I feel very privileged in debt for my thirst!

Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in master?
Don't feel guilty, master writing

Somebody said that they're not much like I am, I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along, I sing then some

"Mexican Seafood"

All the itchy flakes, it is a flaming
All the gels and cremes it is pertaining
To a fungus mold cured by injection
Hope it's only ah, a yeast infection

Oh well, it burns when I - it hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I - it hurts when I see

Now I vomit cum and diarrhoea
On the tile floor like oatmeal pizza
Fill my toilet bowl full of a cloudy
Puss, I feel the blood becoming chowder rust

Oh well, it burns when I - it hurts when I pee
Oh well, it hurts when I - it hurts when I see

Roll into my bed which does consist of
Lice, bugs and fleas and yellow mucus
Stained dirt, vaseline, toe jam and booger
Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared sludge

Mmmmm ...

"Hairspray Queen"

I was your mind, you were my, my enemy,
You were mine, I was your, your enemy,
You would mind, I was your, your enemy,
You were mine, I was was your en ... aaahh
You rang. Your ears rang

I was your mind, you were my, my enemy,
You were mine, I was your, your enemy,
You would mind, I was your, your enemy,
You were mine, I was was your ena ... aaahh

At night, the wishful goddess
At night, she'll wish the hardest
At night, the disco goddess
At night, the witch go gaaahhh!
I was your mind…

Wishful goddess, at night. Wish the hardest, at night
Wishful goddess, at night. Wishful gaaahhh!
I was your mind…

At night, the wishful goddess

At night, she'll wish the hardest
At night, the disco goddess
At night, the itch so modest
At night, the crisco lochness
At night, a mouthful omelette
At sight, the fish full goblets
At night, the witch go gaaawd !!

"Aero Zeppelin"

What's a season in a right if you can't have anything
What's the reason in a rhyme if a plan means anything
What's the meaning in a crime, it's a fan if anything
Where's the learning in a line, it's a brand, it's a brand

How a culture comes again, it was all here yesterday
And you swear it's not a trend, doesn't matter anyway
There's only here to talk to friends, nothing new is everyday
You could shit upon the stage, they'll be fans

They'll be fans [alt: If you brand] [x3]
[x2]
All the kids will eat it up, if it's packaged properly
Steal a sound and imitate, keep a format equally
Not an ode, just the facts, where our world is nowadays
An idea is what we lack, it doesn't matter anyways
Hey ... [x7]

"Big Long Now"
It's not cold enough. Please put this side up
She is moving through. Can we show our faces now?

I'm not interesting. She's not turning green
Shameful as it seems. Can we show our faces now?

Endless climb. I am blind
Why can't I leave?. Color blind
Speaking a phrase. Instantly grown
I am blind. Waiting in line

It's not cold enough. Please put this side up
She is moving through. Can we show our faces now?

I'm not interesting. She's not turning green
Shameful as it seems. Can we show our faces now?

Endless climb. I am blind
Why can't I leave? Color blind
Speaking a phrase. Instantly grown
I am blind - why am I sure?

"Aneurysm"
Come on over and do the twist
Over-do 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! [x7]
Beat me outta me

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

Beat me outta me - Beat it! beat it! [x7]
Beat me outta me
She keeps it pumpin' straight to my heart [x8]

"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 [x4]
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…

"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 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
Go away - get away, get a-way

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
Go away - get away x6

"Heart-Shaped Box"

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 back [Alt: ... when you turn black]

Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait! I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait! I've 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'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
Hey! Wait!...

"Rape Me"

Rape me. Rape me my friend
Rape me. Rape me again
I'm not the only one [x4]

Hate me. Do it and do it again
Waste me. Rape me my friend

I'm not the only one [x4]

My favorite inside source. I'll kiss your open sores
Appreciate your concern. You'll always stink and burn

Rape me. Rape me my friend
Rape me. Rape me again

I'm not the only one [x4] Rape me! [x9]

"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 that you're asking wherever you get your way
It's so soothing
To know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad [x3]

In her false witness, we hope you're still with us,
To see if they float or drown
Our favorite patient, 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 miss the comfort in being sad [x3]

It's so relieving
To know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing
To know that you're asking wherever you get your way
It's so soothing
To know that you'll sue me, this is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad [x3]

"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 [x3]

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 have a hangover
Have a hangover [x3]

Skin the sun. Fall 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
My day is done. But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb. Maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy [x3] I think I'm dumb [x12]

"Very Ape"

I am buried up to my neck in
Contradictionary flies
I take pride as the king 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 the dirt

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
[x2]
Out of the ground. Into the sky
Out of the sky. Into the dirt

"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 endorphins
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

I own my own pet virus. I get to pet and name her
Her milk is my shit. My shit it is her milk
Test meat! Doll steak!

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
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 every birthday
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery!

"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 eternally

I'm so tired and 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

"Radio Friendly Unit Shifter"

- Hmmm ... I just wanna know ... do you like me?
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 cigarette burns
Speak at once while taking turns
What is wrong with me [x3]

I'm gonna do with what you think
If you ever think at all
Bi-polar opposites attract
All of a sudden my water broke

I love you for what I am not
I do not want what I have got
A blanket acne'ed with cigarette burns
Second-rate third degree burns

What is wrong with me [x2] What do I think of me?
Hate, hate your enemies. Save, save your friends
Find, find your place. Speak, speak the truth

What is wrong with me [x3]. What do I think of me?

Use just once and destroy. Invasion of our piracy
Afterbirth of a nation. Starve without your skeleton key [x2]

What is wrong with me [x3]. What do I think of me?

"Tourette's"

Mayday every day, in my heart.
Could've had a heart attack, in my heart.
We don't know anything, in my heart.
We all want something fair, in my heart.
Hey! Hey! Heyyyyyyy! [x3]

Out of town, out of sight, is my heart.
Queen of lies, everyday, in my heart.
My heart, one more on the phone, my heart.
One more at the phone, at my heart
Hey! Hey! Heyyyyyyyyyyy! [x2]

Mean heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart
Cold heart, cold heart, cold heart, cold heart! Uhh!

"All Apologies" ("In Utero" Version)

What else should I be. All apologies
What else could 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. Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy

In the sun In the sun I feel as one
In the sun In the sun
I'm married Buried, Maried, Maried! Buried!
Yeah yeah yeah yeah All in all is all we are [x20]

"Gallons of Rubbing Alcohol Flow through the Strip" (other interpretations possible)

It hurts when you have to press that dull little thing
That you're only supposed to use once and then discard
Where do you put it? In the garbage can, my honest friend
My shyness, pet her flow

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

A meal a day, a meal, I say.

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, but 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

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 ... !
Girls with trouble
It should be GIC, geeks with charvels
No, GWC, fuck man this is a waste of time ...
[laughs]
One more solo? Yeahhhhhhhhh! Yeaaaahhhhh!
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.

"About A Girl"

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
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. Free - I do

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…

I need an easy friend
I do with an ear to lend
I do think you fit this shoe
I do, won't you have a clue?
I'll take…

"Come As You Are"

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 yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old memoria
Memoria [x3]

Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria
Memoria [x3]

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun [x2]
Memoria [x4]

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun [x5]

"Jesus Don't Want Me for a Sunbeam"
(originally by The Vaselines)

Jesus, don't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me [Alt: Sunbeams are laughing at 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

Jesus, don't want me for a sunbeam
Sunbeams are never made like me [Alt: Sunbeams are laughing at me]

Don't expect me to cry,

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

"The Man Who Sold The World"
(originally by David Bowie)

We passed upon the stair. 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
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land [Alt: I searched for foreign land]
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
At all the millions here [Alt 1: We walked a million years]
[Alt 2: With multimillionaires]
[Alt 3: We walked a million hills]
I must have died alone [Alt: I must have died along]
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

Who knows? Not me. We never lost control
You're face to face. With the man who sold the world

"Polly" (MTV Unplugged Version)

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

Isn't me, Have some seed
Let me clip, Dirty wings
Let me take a ride, Hurt yourself
Want some help, Help myself
Got some rope, Have been told
Promise you, Have been true
Let me take a ride, Hurt yourself
Want some help, 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
Isn't me…

Polly said. Polly says her back hurts
She's just as bored as me

She caught me off my guard
It amazes me, the will of instinct
Isn't me…

"On A Plain"

I'll start this off without any words
I got so high that I scratched 'till I bled
I 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 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 brother died every night
It's safe to say, don't quote me on that
I 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
I 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 a 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 sense
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

And one more special message to go
And then I'm done, then I can go home
I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?
[x3] I'm on a plain I can't complain

"Something In The Way"
("MTV Unplugged In New York" Version)

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
It's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings
[x2:]
Something in the way, mmm
Something in the way, yeah, mmm

Underneath the bridge

"Plateau"(originally by The Meat Puppets)

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've 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 was fun

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

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

"Oh, Me" (originally by The Meat Puppets)

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
Sprinkled with emotion. Invented at your birth?
I can't see the end of me

My whole expanse I cannot see
I formulate infinity. Stored deep inside me

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
Sprinkled with emotion. Invented at your birth?
I can't see the end of me
My whole expanse I cannot see
[x2] I formulate infinity. Stored deep inside me

"Lake Of Fire" (originally by The Meat Puppets)

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

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 them again 'till the fourth of July

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 try to make them their own

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 them again 'till the fourth of July

"All Apologies"
("MTV Unplugged In New York" Version)

What else should I be. All apologies
What else should I say. Everyone is gay
What else should 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. 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. Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezer burn. Choking on the ashes of her enemy

In the sun In the sun I feel as one. In the sun In the sun [x2:] Married Buried. Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
[x13:] All in all is all we are.

"Where Did You Sleep Last Night?"
(originally by Lead Belly)

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
