Complete Nirvana - Nevermind Lyrics

SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT

LOAD UP ON GUNS AND BRING YOUR FRIENDS
IT'S FUN TO LOSE AND TOO PRETEND
SHE'S OVER BORED AND SELF ASSURED
OH NO, I KNOW A DIRTY WORD

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

I'M WORSE AT WHAT I DO BEST
AND FOR THIS GIFT I FEEL BLESSED
OUR LITTLE TRIBE HAS ALWAYS BEEN
AND ALWAYS WILL UNTIL THE END

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

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

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 AAH

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 AN OLD ENEMY
TAKE YOUR TIME, HURRY UP,
THE CHOICE IS YOURS, DON'T BE LATE
TAKE A REST AS AFRIEND AS AN 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 COULD PLANT A HOUSE
WE COULD BUILD A TREE
I DON'T EVEN CARE
WE COULD HAVE ALL THREE

LITHIUM

I'M SO HAPPY BECAUSE TODAY
I,VE FOUND MY FRIENDS...
THEY'RE IN MY HEAD
I'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 BECAUSE TODAY 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 NOT EXITED, 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

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 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 GAURD
IT AMAZES ME, THE WILL OF INSINCT

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 AWAY TO FIND A WAY WHEN I'M THERE
GOTA FIND AWAY TO FIND AWAY - 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'S 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 PASIONATE KISS
FROM MY MOUTH TO YOURS BECAUSE 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

SLOPPY LIPS TO LIPS
YOU'RE MY VITAMINS BECAUSE I'M LIKE YOU

Back to top

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
AND I'VE GOT THIS FRIEND, YOU SEE
WHO MAKES ME FEEL AND I
WANTED MORE THAN I COULD STEAL
I'LL ARREST MY SELF, I'LL WEAR A SHIELD
I'LL GO OUT OF MY WAY TO PROVE I STILL
SMELL HER ON YOU

DON'T TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO HEAR
AFRAID OF NEVER KNOWING FEAR
EXPERIENCE ANYTHING YOU NEED
I'LL KEEP FIGHTING JEALOUSLY
UNTIL IT'S FUCKING GONE

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
SMELL HER ON YOU

Back to top

STAY AWAY

MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO
I DON'T KNOW WHY I'D RATHER BE DEAD THAN COOL
EVRYLINE NEDS IN RHYME
LESS IS MORE, LOVE IS BLIND
STAY AWAY
GIVE AN INCH, TAKE A SMILE
FASHION SHITS, FASHION STYLE
THROW IT OUT AND KEEP IT IN
HAVE TO HAVE POISON SKIN
STAY AWAY
GOD IS GAY, BURN THE FLAG

ON A PLAIN

I'LL START THIS OFF WITHOUT ANY WORDS
I GOT SO HIGH THAT I SCRATCHED TIL I BLED

I LOVE MYSEL BETTER THAN YOU
I KNOW IT'S WRONG SO WHAT SHOULD I DO?

THE FINEST DAY I EVER HAD
WAS WHEN I LEARNED TO CRY ON COMMAND
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
IT IS NOW TIME TO MAKE IT UNCLEAR
TO WRITE OFF LINES THAT DON'T MAKE SENSE

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

ONE MORE SPECIAL MESSAGE TO GO
AND THEN I'M DONE THEN I CAN GO HOME

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
AMD I'M LIVING OFF OF GRASS
AND THE DRIPINGS FROM THE CEILING
BUT IT'S OKAY TO EAT FISH,
CAUSE THEY HAVEN'T ANY FEELINGS

SOMETHING IN THE WAY

Back to top

ENDLESS NAMELESS

Silence
Here I am
Here I am
Silent

Bright and clear
It's what I am
I have
Died

uhhhh
uhhhh
uhhhh
uhhhh

Death
With violence
Excitment
Right here

Died
Go to hell
Here I am
Right here

Ow

No mas
No mas
No mas
No mas

Death
Is what I am
Go to hell
Go to jail

In back of that
Crime
Here I am
Take a chance
Dead

Die
