In Utero
(1993)
Teenage angst has paid off well
Now I'm bored and old
Self-appointed judges judge
more than they have sold
If she floats then she is not
a witch like we had thought
a down payment on another
down at salem's lot
Serve the Servants, oh no
That legendary divorce is such a bore
As my bones grew they did hurt
They hurt really bad
I tried to have a father
but instead I had a Dad
I just want you to know that I
Don't hate you anymore
there is nothing I could say
That I haven't thought before
Serve the Servants, oh no
That legendary divorce is such a bore
Like most babies smell like butter
His smell smelled like no other
He was born scentless and senseless
He was born a scentless apprentice
Go away - get away, get away, get a-way
Every wet nurse refused to feed him
Electrolytes smell like semen
I promise not to sell your perfume secrets
There are countless formulas for pressing flowers
I lie in the soil and fertilize mushrooms
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume
You can't fire me because I quit
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit
She eyes me like a pisces when I'm weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for a week
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
Hate
Haight
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
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
Rape me, my friend
Rape me again
I'm not the only one
Hate me
Do it and do it again
Waste me
Taste me, my friend
My favorite inside source
I'll kiss your open sores
Appreciate your concern
You'll always stink and burn
It's so relieving to know that you're leaving as soon as you get paid
It's so relaxing to hear that you're asking wherever you get your way
It's so soothing to know that you'll sue me
This is starting to sound the same
I miss the comfort in being sad
In her false witness, we hope you're still with us,
to see if they float or drown
Our favorite patient, display of patience, disease-covered Puget Sound
She'll come back as fire, to burn all the liars and leave
a blanket of ash on the ground
I miss the comfort in being sad
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
I am buried up to me neck in
Contradictionary flies
I take pride as the king of illiterature
I'm very ape and very nice
If you ever need anything please don't hesitate
To ask someone else first
I'm too busy acting like I'm not naive
I've seen it all, I was here first
Out of the ground
Into the sky
Out of the sky
Into the dirt
I am my own parasite
I don't need a host to live
We feed off of eachother
We can share our endorphins
Doll steak, test meat
I own my own pet virus
I get to pet and name her
Her milk is my shit
My shit is her milk
Doll steak, test meat
Look on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Protector of the kennel
Ecto-plasma
Ecto-skeletal
Obituary Birthday
your scent is still here in my place of recovery
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
Use just once and destroy
Invasion of our piracy
Afterbirth of a nation
Starve without your skeleton key
I love you for what I am not
I do not want what I have got
A blanket acne'ed with cigarette burns
Speak at once while taking turns
Second-rate third degree burns
What is wrong with me
What is what I need
What do I think I think
This had nothing to do with what you think
If you ever think at all
bi-polar opposites attract
All of a sudden my water broke
Hate, hate your enemies
Save, save your friends
find, find your place
Speak, speak the truth
"It's your enemy, no way!
Get out all the time of my heart
There's no enemy in my heart
Well I'm a psychopath, in my heart
Hey!
All the time I've been f***ed--it's my heart
We're all also dead in my heart
Oh no! It's the fault of my heart
Oh no! It's the fault of my heart
We are... Cold Heart
What else should I be
All apologies
What else could I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else shoudl 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 freezerburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
All in all is all we all are
