Intro
School
[Paradiso, Amsterdam Holland, 11/25/91]
Won't you believe it, it's just my luck
Won't you believe it, it's just my luck
Won't you believe it, it's just my luck
Won't you believe it, it's just my luck
No recess
No recess
No recess
(repeat)
You're in high school again
You're in high school again
You're in high school again
You're in high school again
You're in high school again
You're in med school again
You're in med school again-
You're an addict again
No recess (7x)
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 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
(chorus)
(verse 1)
Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth
In a passionate kiss
Sloppy lips to lips
Your my vitamins
Because I'm like you
Aneurysm
Come on over and do the twist- uh huh
Overdo it and have a fit- uh huh
Love you so much it makes me sick- uh huh
Come on over and do the twist- uh huh
Beat me outta me
(8x with slight variations)
Come on over and do the twist- uh huh
Overdo it and have a fit- uh huh
Love you so much it makes me sick- uh huh
Come on over, and shoot the shit- uh huh
(chorus)
She keeps it pumpin’ straight to my heart (8x)
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
And, oh, no, a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello-
With the lights out, its 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-Yea
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
(chorus)
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
(chorus)
A denial...a denial...a denial...
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 (4x)
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 (4x)
(chorus, verse 1, chorus)
Lithium
I'm so happy because today
I found my friends, they're in my head
I'm so ugly, but that's okay,
'cuz so are you, we broke our mirrors
Sunday morning is every day, for all I care
And I'm not scared
Light my candles in a daze, 'cuz I've found God
yea-yeah...yeaaaah-yeah (etc....)
I'm so lonely but that's OK, I shake my head
No 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,
and I don't care
I'm so horny, but that's OK, my will is good
(chorus)
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 (2x)
(repeat)
Sliver
Mom and dad went to a show
Dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed, said please don't go
Grandma take me home (8x)
I had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatoes and stuff like that
I couldn't chew my meat too good
Grandma take me home (8x)
She said, "now don't you start your crying
Go outside and ride your bike"
That's what I did, I (?)
Grandma take me home (8x)
After dinner I had icecream
Fell asleep, and watched TV
I woke up in my mothers arms
Grandma take me home (19x)
I want to be alone
Spank Thru
There's a song in the mountains
And the little light in the trees
And the flowers have gingivitus
And the birds fly happily
We'll be together once again my love
I'll get you back, oh baby baby
I can't explain just why
We lost it from the start
Cause living without you girl
You'll only break my heart
I can feel it
I can hold it
I can mend it
I can shape it
I can mold it
I can cut it
I can paste it
I can spank it
Beat it, while you waited
I've been looking for day glow
Always hearing the same old
Silly woman, be faithful
I can make it do things you wouldn't think it ever could
(repeat all)
Scentless Apprentice
Like most babies smell like butter
This one smelled like no other
He was born scentless and senseless
He was born a scentless apprentice
Go away-- get away, go 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, go away, get a-way
I lie in the soil 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, go away, get a-way
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 black
Hey, Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hate, Haight
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 babies breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
(chorus)
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 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
Negative Creep
This is out of our range
This is out of our range
this is out of our range, oh
This is getting to be
This is getting to be
This is getting to be a drone
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep, aaah
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more (6x)
This is out of our range
This is out of our range
This is out of our range and it's grown
This is getting to be
This is getting to be
This is getting to be uncontrolled
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep, aah
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more (6x)
Fuck, Yeah, Drone, Stoned
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more (12x+)
Polly
Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off her first
Think she wants some water
And do put out the blow torch
Is it me, haven't seen
Let me clip, your dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Don't cut yourself
Want some help, to please myself
Got some rope, you have been told
I promise you, heaven 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 more food
She asks me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
(chorus)
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
(chorus)
Breed
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care if I'm old
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind if I don't have (?)
Get away, get away, get away from you home
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind--
Even if you have
Even if you need
I don't even care
We could have all three
We could plant a house
We could build a tree
I don't even care
We could have all three-
She said (8x)
Get away, get away, get away from you home
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind if I don't have (?)
Get away, get away, get away from you home
I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind--
(chourus)

Dave Grohl:"This is a new song, and we really don't feel like going
through the trouble of putting it out ourselves-"
Kurt Cobain:"This song is called 'The Eagle Has Landed'"
Dave:"Yes. It's for all you bootleggers to just go ahead and GO."
Blew
If you wouldn't mind I would like to blew
If you wouldn't care I would like to lose
If you wouldn't mind I would like to leave
If you wouldn't care I would like to breathe
Is there another reason for your stain?
Could you believe who we knew stress or strain?
Here is another word that rhymes with shame
(repeat)
You could do anything
