Smells Like Teen Spirit

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

Hello, Hello, Hello, How Low (x3)
Hello, Hello, Hello

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
Yeah

Hey...Yay

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

Hello, Hello, Hello, How Low (x3)
Hello, Hello, Hello

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
Yeah

Hey...Yay

(guitar solo)

And I forget just why I taste
Oh, yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Hello, Hello, Hello, How Low (x3)
Hello, Hello, Hello

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

Yeah a denial
A denial! (x9)




In Bloom

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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say...
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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say yeah

We can have some more
Nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit
Tender age in bloom

Heeeeey...
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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say...
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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say yeah

Heeeeey...
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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say...
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 don't know what it means, don't know what it means,
Don't know what it means, don't know what it means
When I say yeah




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 your
Don't be late
Take a rest
As a friend
As an old memoria
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

Come
Dowsed in mud
Soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend
As a friend
As an old memoria
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

And I swear
That I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria {don't have a gun}

And I swear
That I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

Memoria
Memoria




Breed

I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
I don't care
Care if it's old
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind
Mind, don't have a mind
Get away
Get away
Get away
Get away
Away, away from your home
I'm afraid
I'm afraid
I'm afraid
I'm afraid
I'm afraid
Afraid, 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

Polly

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 seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut Yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Heaven True
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
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

Isn't me
Have a seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Have been true
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself

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

Isn't me
Have a seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Have been true
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself




Territorial Pissings

Come on people now, smile on your brother and
everybody get together, try to love one another right now

When I was an alien, cultures weren't opinions

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

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

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait




Drain You

One baby to another says -
I'm lucky to've met you
I don't care what you think
Unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I 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
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
I like you

One baby to another says -
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
I 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
Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins
I like you




Lounge Act

Truth covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to but it couldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I don't regret a thing

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 you need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
Until it's fightin' 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 couldn'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'll 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
they still
Smell her on you
Smell her on you




Stay Away

Monkey see, monkey do - I don't know why.
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, stay away.
Stay away,
Stay away.

Monkey see, monkey do - I don't know why.
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.
I don't know why, I don't know why.

Stay, stay away.
Stay away, stay away.
Stay away, stay away.
Stay away, stay away.
Stay away, God is gay.




On A Plain

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 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.




Something In The Way

Underneath the bridge, the tarp has sprung a leak,
And the animals I trapped have all become my pets,
And I'm living off of grass and the drippings from my ceiling.
It's okay to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings.

Something in the way... mmm...
Something in the way, yeah... mmm...
Something in the way... mmm...
Something in the way, yeah... mmm...
Something in the way... mmm...
Something in the way, yeah... mmm...
