Aneurysm lyrics - Nirvana

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 [x8]

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 shoot the shit

Beat me outta me [x8]

She keeps it pumpin' straight to my heart [x8]

Sliver lyrics - Nirvana

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

Grandma take me home [x7]
Wanna be alone 

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

Grandma take me home [x7]
Wanna be alone 

Said, why don't you stop your crying
Go outside and ride your bike
Thats what I did, I killed my toe 

Grandma take me home [x7]
Wanna be alone 

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

Grandma take me home [x16]
Never take me home [x2]
Grandma take me home

Wanna be alone

Spank Thru lyrics - Nirvana

And as the soft pretentious mountains
Glisten in the light of the trees
And the flowers sing in D minor
And the birds fly happily

We'll be 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 bend it - I can shape it and/or mold it
I can cut it, I can taste it - I can spank it, I can beat it ejacu-late it ... Aah!
I've been lookin for day Glo - Always hearing the same ole'
Sticky boredom with a book -
I can make it do things you wouldn't think it ever could

Scentless Apprentice lyrics - Nirvana

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]
Get a-way

Heart-Shaped Box lyrics - Nirvana

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!
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 back
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back

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

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!
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 [x3]

Negative Creep lyrics - Nirvana

This is out of our reach
Out of our reach [x2]
And it's gone

This is getting to be 
Getting to be [x2]
A drone

Negative creep [x3]
And I'm stoned!

Negative creep [x3]
And I'm ...

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x4]

Out of our reach [x3]
And it's gone

Getting to be [x3]
A drone

Negative creep [x3]
And I'm stoned!

Negative creep [x3]
And I'm ... 

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x4]

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more [x8]

Polly lyrics - Nirvana

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 
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 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 

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 
Want me take a ride 
Don't cut yourself 
I want some help 
To please myself

Breed lyrics - Nirvana

(other interpretations possible)

I don't care [x2]
Care, care, care, care if I'm old 
I don't mind [x3]
Mind, mind, don't have a mind 
Get away [x2]
Away, away, away, away from your home 
I don't mind [x2]
Mind, mind, mind ...

Even if you have 
Even if you need 
I don't even care
We could have a tree
We could plant a house
We could build a tree
I don't even care 
We could have a tree
She said [x8]

Get away [x2] 
Away, away, away from your home 
I don't mind (x3)
Mind, mind, don't have a mind 
Get away [x2] 
Away, away, away, away from your home 
I don't mind [x2]
Mind, mind, mind ...

Even if you have 
Even if you need 
I don't even care
We could have a tree
We could plant a house
We could build a tree
I don't even care 
We could build a tree
She said (x8)

Even if you have 
Even if you need 

I don't even care
We could have a tree
We could plant a house
We could build a tree
I don't even care 
We could have all three
She said [x12]

Tourette's: The Eagle Has Landed lyrics - Nirvana

- Hey bootleggers!
So, this is a new song and we don't really feel like ..
actually going through the trouble of putting it out ourselves, so ...
- This song is called "The Eagle has Landed" !
Yeah, and its for all of you bootleggers to go ahead and go !

Try to find something fast, in my eyes
Oh no, that's ok, phone home
Everthing tastes the same, in my eyes
Every day, every taste, in my eyes

Hey! [x3]

Every time it's in his chin, in my eyes
Everything Tennesees, phone home
Bring it down, at the town, in my eyes
Bring it in, set it's in, in my eyes

Hey! [x3]

Try it's sound, something found, it ain't us
Round down, at the town, go home
Round down, something in, mean us
Every taste, something fake, gross

Hey! [x3]

Take ...
Mean heart ...
Mean hearts ...[x3]


[Alternate version of the lyrics to this song:]

Down down such a fast, in my eyes
Won't ever let you down, flown home
Granted to your sense of sound, oh my eyes
You and me it contains, my heart

Hey! [x3]

Go dark sound check, my eyes
Everything teddy sees, is all wrong
Burnin' down half the town, and my house
Entertaining suicide, well my heart

Hey! [x3]

Jonestown such a frown, see yours
Riddle meal left the town, or go home
Rarin' round such a day, for me uh ..
Hitch a train to Santa Fe, or go horse

Hey! [x3]

Take ...
Mean horse ...
Mean horse ...[x3]

Blew lyrics - Nirvana

- Thank you for your patience!

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

Come As You Are lyrics - Nirvana

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]

Memoria

Jesus Don't Want Me For A Sunbeam lyrics - Nirvana

(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 me

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

[x2]
Don't expect me to cry
Don't expect me to lie
Don't expect me to die for me

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

The Man Who Sold The World lyrics - Nirvana


(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

Dumb lyrics - Nirvana

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
The day is done
But I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb

Think I'm just happy [x4]
I think I'm dumb [x12]

Polly lyrics - Nirvana

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,
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 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,
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

On A Plain lyrics - Nirvana

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
