Smells Like Teen Spirit
[Inspiration: An attack on the apathy of our own generation ]

Load up on guns and bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over bored and self assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low?

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?

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

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

 


In Bloom
[Inspiration: A message against the people who listen to certain music for the wrong reason. Imagine the macho, gun toting guy who sings alone to Nirvana, but has no clue what he's singing about. ]

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 aahh

We can have some more, nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit, tender age in bloom

 


Come As You Are
[Inspiration: A song full of contradictions on how we act versus how we think society thinks we should act. ]

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 your, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend as an old 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
[Inspiration: Growing up and being trapped by middle class america. ]

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

 


Lithium
[Inspiration: A first person narrative of a nervous breakdown, or an update of the Marxist description of religion as 'Opiate of the masses'. ]

I'm so happy because today
I've found my friends
They're in my head
I'm 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 but that's okay 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 so excited, 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

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 kill you, I'm not gonna crack

 


Polly
[Inspiration: Based on the actual kidnapping of a 14 year old girl and her torture. ]

Polly wants a cracker
Think I should get off her first
Think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch

Isn't me
Have a 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

(chorus)

Polly said
Polly says her back hurts
She's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
Amazes me the will of instinct

(chorus)

 


Territorial Pissings
[Inspiration: Multi-themed song that attacks macho men.]

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 a way, to find a way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way, a better way, I had better wait

 


Drain You
[Inspiration:A song about love. Highly medical theme.  ]

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've became 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

 


Lounge Act
[Inspiration: A song about having a certain vision and being smothered by a relationship. ]

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 myself, 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 wanna hear
Afraid of never knowing fear
Experience anything yoy need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
Until it's fucking gone

I'll go out of my way to make you a deal
We've make 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

 


Stay Away
[Inspiration:An attack on any conformist clique. ]

Monkey see, monkey do
I don't know why I'd rather be deal than cool
Every line ends 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
[Inspiration: Many small lines of poetry having multi themes. ]

I'll start this off without any words
I got so high that I scratched 'til I bled

I love myself better than you
I know it's wrong so what should I do?

The finest day that I've ever had
Was when I learned to cry on command

I'm on a plain
I can't complain

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

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

One more special message to go
And then I'm done then I can go home

 


Something In The Way
[Inspiration:A song about Kurt's experiences living under a bridge when he was kicked out of home. ]

Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
But it's okay to eat fish
Cause they haven't any feelings

Something in the way

 


Endless Nameless
[Inspiration: Previously called 'The Noise Jam'. An experimental song created when one of the takes on Lithium went bad. ]

Silent, here I am
I am, silent
Bright and clear, it's what I am
I have died

uhhhh

Death and violence
Excitment, right here
Died, go to hell
Here I am, right here
Oww

no mas

Death, silence
I am hurt again
Imagine that, cryin'
Here I am, chargin'
Dead

Die
