You
Know You're Right
I will never bother you
I will never promise to
I will never follow you
I will never bother you
Never speak a word again
I will crawl away for good
I won't move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this
Things have never been so swell
I have never failed to fail
Pain (3x)
You know you're right (3x)
I'm so warm and calm inside
I no longer have to hide
There's talk about someone else
Sterling silver begins to melt
Nothing really bothers her
She just wants to love herself
I won't move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
Always knew it would come to this
Things have never been so swell
I have never failed to fail
Pain (5x)
You know you're right (17x)
About a Girl
I need an easy
friend
I do... with an ear to lend
I do... think you fit this shoe
I do... won't you have a clue
I'll take advantage
while
You hang me out to dry
But I can't see you every night
Free
I'm standing in
your line
I do... hope you have the time
I do... pick a number too
I do... keep a date with you
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
She should have made her mother proud
She should have stood out in the crowd
She should have had another chance
She should have fallen on her stance
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
She should have been a son
Sliver
Mom and dad went
to a show
they dropped me off at Grandpa Joe's
I kicked and screamed,
said please no
Grandma take me home
Had to eat my dinner there
Mashed potatos and stuff like that
I couldn't chew my meat good
Grandma take me home
Said well good just stop your crying
Go outside and ride your bike
Thats what i did, i kicked my toe
Grandma take me home
after dinner, I had ice cream
Fell asleep, and watched TV
I woke up in my mother's arms
Grandma
take me home
I wanna be alone
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?
(coro)
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!
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?
(coro)
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?
(coro)
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
A denial...
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
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 - yeah, yeah, yeah
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 - yeah, yeah, yeah
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
In Bloom
Sell the kids
for food

Spring is here again

(coro)
He's the one
Who likes all our 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
And I say... yeaahh
(repeat)
We can have some
more -- nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit -- tender age in bloom

Heart-shaped
Box
She eyes me like
a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box four whole weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
Meat-eating orchids
forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey
Wait
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey

Forever in debt to your priceless advice

Pennyroyal
Tea
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
Rape
Me
Rape me,
Rape me my friend
Rape me,
Rape me again
I'm not the only
one
Hate me,
Do it and do it again.
Waste me,
Rape me my friend.
I'm not the only
one
My favorite inside
source
I'll kiss your open sores
Appreciate your concern
You'll always stink and burn
Rape me,
Rape me my friend
Rape me,
Rape me again
I'm not the only
one
Rape me...
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
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
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
All
Apologies
What else should
I be
All apologies
What else should 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
All in all is all we are
The Man Who Sold The World
We passed upon
the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World
I laughed and
shook hishand, and made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazley stare at all the millions here
We must have died along, a long long time ago
Who knows? not
me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World
