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
Oh no, I know 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, it's less dangerous
Here we are now. entertain us
I feel stupid and contageous
Here we are now. entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Yay.

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello.

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now. entertain us
I feel stupid and contageous
Here we are now. entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Yay.

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?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
Hello, hello, hello.

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now. entertain us
I feel stupid and contageous
Here we are now. entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido

COME AS YOU ARE

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

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

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

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'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

Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Ya

I'm so lonely, but that's okay, I shaved my head...
*I'm so happy, but that's okay, I shaved my head... (live)
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

Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Yaaa Yaa
Ya

I like it,
I'm not gonna crack.
I miss you,

I love you,
I'm not gonna crack.
I killed you,
I'm not gonna crack.

POLLY

Polly wants a cracker
I think I should get off of 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 hurt yourself
I want some help
To help 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 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 hurt yourself
I want some help
To help 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 says..

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 help 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

TERRITORIAL PISSINGS
Intro Vocals by Chris Novoselic

Come on people now,
Smile on your brother -
Everybody get together,
Try to love one another right now.

When I was an alien, cultures weren't opinions

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

Never met a wise man, if so it's a woman

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 comletely 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 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

Chew your meat for you
Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours because I like 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 comletely 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

Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins because I'm like you

LOUNGE ACT

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 want to hear
Afraid of never knowing fear
Experience anything you need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
Until it's fucking gone

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

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 make you a deal
We've made 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

They still
Smell her on you
Smell her on you

STAY AWAY

Monkey see monkey do
I don't know why I'd rather be dead than cool
I don't know why Every line ends in rhyme
I don't know why Less is more, love is blind
I don't know why

Stay
Stay away
Stay away
Stay away

Give an inch, take a smile
I don't know why Fashion shits, fashion style
I don't know why Throw it out and keep it in
I don't know why Have to have poison skin
I don't know why

Stay
Stay away
Stay away
Stay away

I don't know why
I don't know why

Stay

Monkey see monkey do
I don't know why I'd rather be dead than cool
I don't know why Every line ends in rhyme
I don't know why Less is more, love is blind

ON A PLAIN

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 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 mother 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?

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?

I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain
I can't complain
I'm on a plain

SOMETHING IN THE WAY
Cello by Kirk Canning

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 don't have any feelings

Something in the way
Something in the way, ya
Something in the way
Something in the way, ya
Something in the way
Something in the way, ya

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 don't have any feelings

Something in the way
Something in the way, ya
Something in the way
Something in the way, ya
Something in the way
Something in the way, ya
Something in the way
Something in the way, ya

ENDLESS, NAMELESS

Silent, here I am
I am, silent

Bright and clear, is what I am
Crime, go to jail

Death and violence
Excitement, right here

Died, go to hell
Crime, go to jail

Help us (?)
Help us (?)
Help us (?)
Help us (?)

Death, is what I am
go to hell, go to jail

Imagine that, crime
Here I am, chargin' (?)

Dead
Die

"I think I can, I know I can"
-Kurt Cobain
(thoughts on Endless, Nameless lyrics)
