Nirvana Lyrics
Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana

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, hello, hello, hello

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
A little group is all it's been
And always will be until the end

Hello, hello, hello, 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
Yes

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, 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
A denial


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
 
 
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
 
 
Heart-Shaped Box

She eyes me like a piscis 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 complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hate
Height
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
 
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
 
   
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
 
 
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
Fall asleep
Wish away
The soul is cheap
Lesson learnedd
Wish me luck
Soothe the burn
Wake me up
 
 
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 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 endorphns
 
Doll steak, test meat
 
I own 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
 
 
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 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
 
 
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
 
   
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
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezerburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all we all are


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, 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 (tribe)
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
 
 
In Bloom

Sell the kids for food
weather changes moods
Spring is here again
reproductive glands
 
He's the one who likes all the pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
And I say aahh
 
We can have some more - nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit - tender age in bloom
 
 
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 your, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend as an old memoria
 
Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria
 
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
 
 
Breed

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
 
 
Lithium

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 - hey, hey, hey
 
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 - hey, hey, hey
 
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
 
 
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
 
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
 
 
Territorial Pissings

When I was an alien, cultures weren't opinions
 
Never met a wise man, if so it's a woman
 
Just because you're paranoid
Doesn'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 -
I had better wait
 
 
Drain You

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
