Very Ape lyrics - Nirvana

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 lyrics - Nirvana

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 lyrics - Nirvana

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

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea

Distill the life that's inside of me

Sit and drink Pennyroyal Tea

I'm anemic royalty

Radio Friendly Unit Shifter lyrics - NIrvana

- Hmmmmmm ... 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 ciggarette 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 ciggarette 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 lyrics - Nirvana

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!

Uhhhhhhh!

All Apologies lyrics - Nirvana

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

Married, Maried, Maried!

Buried!

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

All in all is all we are [x20]

Gallons Of Rubbing Alcohol Flow Through The Strip lyrics - Nirvana

(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.

Sliver lyrics - Nirvana

Mom and dad went to a show

They dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's

I kicked and screamed, said please, don't go

Grandma take me home [x8]

Had to eat my dinner there

Mashed potatos and stuff like that

I couldn't chew my meat too good

Never take me home [x8] (Alt: Grandma take me home [x8])

She said, well, don't you start your crying

(Alt: Said, why don't you stop your crying)

Go outside and ride your bike

Thats what I did, I killed my toad

Never take me home [x8]

After dinner, I had ice cream

I fell asleep, and watched TV

I woke up in my mother's arms

Never take me home [x19]

I wanna be alone

Stain lyrics - Nirvana

[x3]

Well he never bleeds and he never fucks

And he never leaves 'cause he's got bad luck.

Well he never reads and he never draws.

And he never sleeps 'cause he's got bad blood, yeah

I'm a stain, I'm a stain, I'm a stain, I'm a stain

Been A Son lyrics - Nirvana

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

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

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

[x2]

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

She should have - 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

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

She should have - been a son

(New Wave) Polly lyrics - Nirvana

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

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 please myself [Alt: To help myself]

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

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 please myself [Alt: To help myself]

Beeswax lyrics - Nirvana

(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

Mexican Seafood lyrics - Nirvana

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 lyrics - Nirvana

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, 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 ... 

Wishful goddess, at night

Wish the hardest, at night

Wishful goddess, at night

Wishful gaaahhh!

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!

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 lyrics - Nirvana

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 lyrics - Nirvana

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?

Turnaround lyrics - Nirvana

(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

Take a good look

You're no big deal

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
