Hey fellas have you heard the news,
You know that Annie's back in town
It won’t take long just watch and see
How the fellas lay their money down
Her style is new but the face is the same
As it was so long ago
But her eyes..

"Do a solo"
"Solo, solo!"

Anorexorcist

Look your legs are ashes
Charred into a special
Don't make noise, you break
Your legs are eyes and all
You're right 

I was your incompetent
Man just read the furies
Special time but you can't
Make too much of him
Gray 

Ahhhh (x2)
Ohhhh (x2)

I was yours and closer
Your were them in New York
Got me in, to enter
See your legs are in your legs 

I was your end dancer
More than all I wish you
Got me under with the
Nice, nice, nice religious man 

Ahhhh (x2) 
Ohhhh (x2)

White Lace and Strange

That is the way you want it
You wanted it to be the way you like it

I'm no lover
We wanted you to see it the way you wanted
It's all right

But I could be human
I never wanted to open your eyes

But please let go of the human

Help Me I'm Hungry

"That's it!"

Until my tensions feed me (Alt: There's too much tensions)
I'm fucking hungry
Grade me
I want my gun back

Light the fucking résumé (Alt: With me)
Experience potentials
Experience the process
People freaking every day
White lights hidden inside

(unintelligible)

Blasphemy!

Hold me, I'm so pathetic
And study, all the sudden
Baby, suddenly find her
Daddy, exploring only

Light the fucking résumé (Alt: With me)
Experience potentials
Experience the process
People freaking every day
White lights hidden inside

(unintelligible)

Hold me, some potentials (Alt: so pathetic)
Grade me, somebody help me
Feed me, I'm fucking hungry
Sooth me, I want my complex back 

Naked man licked off the scabs and
Fed them, to the pigeons
Help him, he's cornered
Kill him, you mercy whore will

Light the fucking résumé (Alt: With me)
Experience potentials
Experience the process
People freaking every day
White lights hidden inside

Help me, fucking hoses (Alt: Horses)
Help me, until my tensions
Graise me, I'm really hungry
To gravy, I want my complex back

Mrs. Butterworth

Your life is shit (shit)
Your life is bogus (bull)
Your life is crime (crime)
Your life is hell (hell)

I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna die, with my libido
I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna die, don't fuck with me

Your life is shit (shit)
Your life is clean (it is clean)
Your life is lame, it's not so funny
Your life is stale (frail, frail!)

I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna hell on my libido

I'm gonna die, watch the pain!

Your life is shit.

"I'm gonna open up myself a flea market
I'm gonna open up myself a flea market
And you're gonna wish that you did
And retire on the profits

First off,
I'm gonna empty out all of my Mrs. Butterworth jars
And I'm gonna put 'em on a shelf with my 800 dollar a month tax free Century 21 
shop

And then I am going to put my Mrs. Butterworth syrup jars on the shelf
Next to all the commemorative fast food chain glasses and cups I've accumulated 
over the past 62 years

Then I'm going to get some plywood

I'm going to get some plywood and cut them up into two by two feet squares
Then I'm going to get some burlap and I'm going to cut them into 
two by two feet squares, and then I'm going to put them onto the 
pieces of plywood

And then I'm going to go to the beach
I'm going to go to the beach and I'm gonna collect some 
shells and driftwood

And then I'm going to take the shells and driftwood and glue them 
onto the plywood and burlap

And sell 'em for lots of money

People will be paying top dollar for my kids new used new 
toys and clothing 

Then maybe someday I can get rid of that 
pissed-stained matress I've been sleeping on"

I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna hell on my libido
I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna die on my libido

I'm gonna die on my libido
I'm gonna die, start a new union (Alt: but not before you do)
I'm gonna die watch the pain

If You Must

I can read, I can write
I can breed, proven plight
Nurse my greed, crease infold
Is it me, or my ego ...

Write some words, make them rhyme
Thesis or story line
Set the mood, something new
Is it me, or my attitude ...

Ahhhhh...!

If you want 
to put off
an image

The extremes (x2)

Act it out
Practicing
Perfecting
Pressuring

Onto me (x3)

I will wade in the fire
To explain your asylum
Idle times, analyzing
We'll compare all our sightings

I speak

Pen Cap Chew

*Cough*

Oh, lesser God (x4)
Oh, your lonely (x3)
Oh (x2)

You get, you get, you get, you get to me
Holy is the time, it's such an easy way to go
You get, you get, you get, you get to me
Hide the circle in the skin under a fingernail 

(x4)
Oh, lesser God
Oh, your lonely

Waste your time by saving worthless gullibles
Kill a politician and then wear his clothes
This decade is the age of rehashing
Protest and then go to jail for trespassing
Throw me inside 

Oh (x3)

Downer

Portray sincerity,
Act out of loyalty,
Defend your free country,
Wish away pain.

Hand out lobotomies,
To save little families,
Surrealistic fantasy,
Bland boring plain.

Hold me now in restitution
Living out your date of fusion
In our whole fleece is your master
Don't feel guilty, master writing 

Somebody said that they're not much like I am
I know I can
Make enough up the words
You go along
I'll sing your song

Sickening pessimist, hypocrite master
Conservative communist, apocalyptic bastard
Thank you dear God, for putting me on this Earth
I feel very privileged, in debt for my thirst!

Hold me now in restitution
Living out your date of fusion
In your whole fleece is your master
Don't feel guilty, master writing!

Somebody said that they're not much like I am
I know I can
Make enough up the words
You go along
I'll sing your song

Floyd The Barber

Bell on door clanks come on in
Floyd observes my hairy chin
Sit down chair don't be afraid
Steamed hot towel on my face 

I was shaved
I was shamed
I was shaved 

Barney ties me to the chair
I can't see, I'm really scared
Floyd breathes hard; I hear a zip
Pee pee pressed against my lips 

I was shaved
I was shamed
I was shaved 
Get away!

I sense others in the room
Opey, Aunt Bea I presume
They take turns and cut me up
I died smothered in Andy's butt 

I was shamed
I was shamed
I was shaved

Raunchola / Moby Dick

This is a hard, cold beat
You can go dance if you'd like
You won't get in trouble
And the tea has some spice
You wanna know it hits ya
You can make, have some fun
Watching them make you away
Up on the wall you won't 

Ahhhhh ...

What's in the wait, your waiter
We only ate your garnish
I ordered spam and rice
In this to say you're fired
We dance on the table tops
We only had your daughter
We ordered too many cocktails
What's in the way you love

(Shouting)

Beans

"I don't like you
And I'm gonna beat you up
No! No! No! No!
No John!
I'm telling my mom!
Ahh beating.." 

Beans, beans, beans
Jessie ate some beans
He was happy, happy, happy
That he ate some beans 

Sitting naked, naked
Sitting cross-legged

Naked, naked, naked
And he was happy, happy, happy
That he ate some beans 

Wine, wine, wine
Jessie had some wine
He was happy, happy, happy
That he ate some ... wine 

Beans, beans, beans
Jessie ate some beans
And he drank some wine
And he was happy, happy, happy
That he drank some beans ...

Don't Want It All

To hope is admittance
Feed before beginning
Double-sided cynics
Reflected image

Don't be so selfish
Leave in me this 

Follow it far
To find where you are
You haven't grown
Go on alone 

Never finished his sentence
Remained in seclusion
For the next few days
The family circle noose

He had removed us
All the styles of heresy

Finally he appeared unexpectedly
Looking for company

Clean Up Before She Comes

Clean up before she comes (x4)
Living in a dusty town (x2)

Something in her eyes
Must be the smoke from my lungs
Something in her eyes

I must be getting old 
I must be getting, getting older
I'm starting to eat my vegetables 

Something in her eyes

Clean up the dusty town
Living in a dusty town (x4)

Polly (solo)

Polly wants a cracker,
She'd like me to get off her first
Maybe she wants some water,
To put out the blow torch 

Isn't me
Have some seed
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Just take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
To please myself 

Polly wants a cracker,
Maybe she would like some food
She asked me to untie her,
A chase would be nice for a few

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

Dirty wings

Cut yourself
Want some help

Got some rope
Some dope

It's not too real
It's not too fake
Keep your eyes
See the same
Cause in my seam

About a Girl

Ohhh, I do 
Don't pin a note to me
I do promise to agree
I do live in constant fear
I do wonder why I'm here 
And if you say I'm right
You'll hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free

I do 
Don't wash my face again
I do away from all my friends
I do have a breath in you
I do can't see if we move 
And if you say I'm right

They Hung Him On a Cross

They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

One day when I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

They whooped him up the hill
They whooped him up the hill
They whooped him up the hill for me

One day when I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They whooped him up the hill for me

He never said a mumblin word (Alt: He never sat among them worked)
He never said a mumblin word (Alt: He never sat among them worked)
He never said a mumblin word for me (Alt: He never sat among them worked for me)

One day when I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

They bit him in the side
They bit him in the side
They bit him in the side for me

One day when I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

He hung his head and died
He hung his head and died
He hung his head and died for me

One day when I was lost
They hung him on a cross
They hung him on a cross for me

I'm not gonna make it through
Something else, something new
I'm not gonna make you dream
Something sad, something mean
I'm not gonna make you through
Something else, something new

Hold it in your gut (x8)

Someday sad, someday blue

Even In His Youth

Even in his youth (x3)
He was nothing

Kept his body clean (x3)
He was nowhere

Killed the family name
Daddy was ashamed (x2)
He was nothing

The thief is born before you're through
Must be more than you could chew
I've got nothing left to do
If you wait, you wanted you

Opinion

"Oh, this song is called Opinion"

Congratulations, you have won
It's a year subscription of bad puns
And it makes your story of concern
And you set it up before it burns

My opinions, mmm (x4)

And it seems to be a problem here
And the steer of emotion seems to clear
Now they rise and fall like wall street stock
And they have an effect on our peace talk

Our opinions, mmm
My opinions, mmm (x3)

Congratulations, you have won
It's a year subscription of bad puns
And it makes your story of concern
And you set it up before it burns

Lithium

I'm so happy 'cause today 
I've found my friends
They're in my head 
I'm so ugly, but that's okay, 'cause so are you

We broke 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
Yeah, hey
Yeah, hey, Mmmm
Yeah, hey

I'm so lonely, but that's okay, I shaved your 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, that's okay
My will is good 

Yeah, hey
Yeah, yeah (X4)

Note: On the handwritten lyrics that Kurt Cobain wrote, he marked 
the chorus as "Hey" and not "Yeah". That's what's also been reflected here, 
even though most would argue that the word "Yeah" is present in the song. 

So, if you feel that "Yeah" is more correct, just use that instead. I don't care :)

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 (x4)

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 (x4)

Sliver

Mom and dad went to a show
They dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I swear to God 
Oh, please don't go 

Gramma take me home (x8)

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

Gramma take me home (x8)

She said why don't you quit your crying
Go outside and ride your bike
That's what I did 
I killed my toe 

Gramma take me home (x7)
Wanna be alone 

My Grandpa had a cigarette
It touched my arm on accident
I swear to God it hurt real bad 

Gramma take me home (x8)

Where Did You Sleep Last Night

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night 
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through 

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night

Tell me where did you sleep last night 
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through 

Her husband was a hard working man
And ... (?)
His head was found in a driving wheel
And his body was never found

My girl, my girl, don't lie to me
Tell me where did you sleep last night
In the pines, in the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
I would shiver the whole night through

Drain You

I'm lucky to met you
I don't care what you think

From my mouth to yours
Sloppy lips to lips
In a passionate kiss
I like you ...

Make up the rules
I know, I hope
The tide is blue

Though some are dead
I'll walk from you
I know, I'll light
The way to go

Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello!

I'm a liar and I'm famous
Here we are now, entertain us

Here we are now, segregate us

A libido, an albino
A mulatto, a mosquito

Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and we're famous

Yeah!

Hey (x4)

Come out and play
Make up the rules
I know, I hope
To find the truth

We're wide awake
And heavy feeling
We'll go outside
And pray for me

Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)

And I will not embrace you
I'm now a lie, the same as you

I don't care (x4)

Away, away from your home

I'm afraid (x4)
'Fraid 
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

Verse Chorus Verse

Neither side is sacred, no one wants to win
Feeling so sedated, think I'll just give in
Taking medication 'till my stomach's full
Either side is sacred, growing in my home (Alt: Crawling in my hole)

Grass is greener, over here
You're the fog that keeps me clear
Reinventing, what would you do?
Take your time and I'll be true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again

Neither side is sacred, no one wants to win
Feeling so sedated, but I can't give in
Even medication, 'till my stomach's full
Feeling so sedated, when I'm in my home

Grass is greener, over here
You're the fog that keeps me clear
Reinventing, what would you do?
Take your time and I'll be true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again

Oh (x4)

Neither side is sacred, no one wants to win
Feeling so sedated, think I'll just give in
Taking medication 'till my stomach's full
Feeling so sedated, when I'm in my home

Grass is greener, over here
You're the fog that keeps me clear
Reinventing, what would you do?
Learn from history, and I'll be true
You're the reason I feel pain
Feels so good to feel again

Oh ...

Old Age

"We're rollin..."

One more day to complete my service
One more high to decay my nervous
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more day to complete my service
One more time here to fade my servant
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
Over

She seen through me and mine
And I know a later time
We could make it with you
We're the same

Old age (x4)

One more day to complain, my servant
One more doubt here to find a servant
Wondering how I'm gonna find
It's over

Wondering how I'm here date my cover
One more doubt here to save my never
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

She seemed true, me and mine
And I know a later time
We and we're you to you
Leave the soul

Old age (x4)

Just you need and read you free
Hmmm
And knew
You read
You flew
Ooo
Hmmm

One more day to complete my circuit
One more high here to find my nervous
Someday I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more doubt here to claim my supper
I can have anything you wanted
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

He seemed to read minds
And I know we're out of time
Breathe away here with you
Dream the same on the dew
Breathe the same on her
Breathe to moan on a man
Breathe and shame on you
He's late

Old age (x7)

Mama (x3) (Alt: Mother)

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 (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
Or maybe just happy

Think I'm just happy (x3)

I think I'm dumb (x12)

She likes to be (x3)

She's into guilt

Heart-Shaped Box

"Are we rolling?" 

She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been buried in a heart-shaped box for weeks
You done undid my magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could catch your cancer when I am sick 

(x3)
Hey!
Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice 

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Your advice (x3) 

I asked me like a Pisces when I've been weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
And in a magnet tar pit film on your trap
I wish I could catch your cancer when I am black

Hey!
Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice 

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

You've drawn me into your magnet tar pit trap

Wait!
I've got a new complaint

I Hate Myself And I Want To Die

"Ready?"

Even if you own a wife
Even if you like in my state
I could never want a bribe
I've been there no matter what that 

In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe, what's that sound?
In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe ...

Even if you wanted light
I could never matter to play
Even if you want a life
Even if I like it, you're sad 

In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe, what's that sound?
In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe, what's that sound?

Even if you own a wife
Even if you wanted one thing
I could never want a life
I could never only one day

In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe, what's that sound?
In the someday, what's that sound?
In the sun bathe, what's that sound?

Milk It

"Is this when you start out first?"
"No, we all start out"
"Okay, we'll start out first"
"Yeah, two quiet ... two quiet"
"No, we'll start out all together"
"Okay, right ... nut not loud - two quiet and then we go loud"
"You guys are wasting tape"
"Right, okay"

This mother and her daughter

She said (x2)

Hey my own will beat water
My liars will be the milk man
My mother will be your, hey
My letter's gone insane

She said I'm not just like her
She said I'm like her son
I drink more milk than he does
I'm a deal and I want my mom

She said (x2)

Big mothers mill be able
My letters will you sell 
My mother is my father
But no one is alone

She said (x2)

My lover is your mother
I wish I should drink more milk
He lies when I'm here in my bedroom
I like him better than
I never helped you riddle
I never take a bath
He always puts the chocolate
On my pillow before I go to bed!

Gallons Of Running Alcohol Flow Through The Strip

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, in my honest
In 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
And 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
Hah! Come on, Dave, think of one ...

Girls in Trouble!

It should be GIC, Geeks with Charvels
No, GWC 
Fuck, man, this is a waste of time

*laughs*

One more solo? 

Yeahhh! 
Yeahh! 

You're personally responsible for ...
The entire strip
To be washed away
Cleansed

As if gallons of, ... uhm, 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

The Other Improv

It's an odd alliance
It's another light I say 
What alone tonight
Even if my eyes
Even have some time
Bet it all tonight 

Listen I have been banging away
Even if you had a sight
My 

It's mad enough tonight
And forests have never grown
It's another light
And I can never have mine 

It's not mine (x2)

Instead I hide 
I've been here for my friends
I never know if I said

Watching out for me
When I can love you
Have your way 

And she might as well know I
Seem more high
High
Than ...

I said, minerals will make the world
If we did not have chemicals
You would not be writing my death certificate 

Biting is my friend
My dog left me a sand send
One more day than I can plan
Ends safe from you

Biting ass a lie friend
When I will never have a friend

Biting silent as a man
His silence setting up around 
And she improvised
And she was supervised

I was arised
Or arosed
Or a rose (x2)
Or aroused

And fine!
Fine line
When I
Said night time
When I
Could never kind
And I 

My milk is your shit (x2)
It's hard and boiled
And sour all again

My milk is your shit (x8)

(x5)
It revolves
It evolves

Cause it's biting out what would 

My milk is your shit (x4)

My milk is your (x2)
My milk is your shit
My milk is piss
Don't you love that I can bite

Serve The Servants

Serve the servants, oh no (x3)

If I see you're moving me
If you need to set me
You lost to everything

Candy striped blue volunteer
Who lost her trance to me
They to kill your bed is made
And have them all IV

Burn to hell you'll never be
It's safe to say for me 
If it makes you happy, oh no

Serve the servants, oh no (x6)

You see, and I know your in vain

Very Ape

It's your heaven
It's your oven
It's your tired
It's a new way to make things used
It's in heaven if you never can find out
Haven't you seen
I am with you

It's another way to light thin fire
It's a reason that's all we can do
It's a lake
If you're sitting right out

(x5)
Now I'm insane
Now I'm with you

Hit some sun with your eyes
Hit some sun with your light

A da da dum da da da da
A da da dum da da da da

Now I can see
Now I'm with you

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

So I can sigh eternally

Cherry-flavored antacids

Six color pictures, all in a row
Of a marigold

Do Re Mi

If I may
And if I might
Lie me down, weeping
If I say what it's like
I might be dreaming
If I may
What is right
Some make time to see me heal

His tears in his bonnet
The face from his pocket
The chains from a blown life from dreams

Do Re Mi (x4)

If I may 
And if I might
Wake me up 
See me
If I do and if I lie
Find me out 
See me
If I may 
Cold as ice
I might not see me heal

The rays in his socket
The face from this moment
The chains from the socket
I've been weak

Do Re Mi (x6)

Wish me good
And wish me night
Find me now 
Season

Their way
Just be quiet
Finally dreaming
Yellow whale
And if I sigh
Shake me out 
Teeming

If I may
If I might
Got a gun to bleed me

The rays in his pocket
The rays from this moment
The chains from his armor
Am I deep?

Do Re Mi (x8)

You Know You're Right

I will never walk it through
I could never promise you
If some things followed you
I will never wander through

Is it me you love again?
Guess I'll never have a fan

Isn't me the real me
I could never have a see
It's a never-ending dream
I will always wanna flee

If I'm real, have a go
Empathy I haven't known

Dream (x4)

Guess I never followed you
How come me libels you
I could never die again
I won't lose another friend

She wants to see another me
When I'm through I meditate
It's some we all medicate
Guess I'll fall and medicate

It's another opiate
But to me it's everything

Dream (x4)

I will never promise you

Dream (x2)

All Apologies

What else could I be

In the sun (x2)

What else could I be
All apologies
