Song lyrics
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 contagious 
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto 
An albino 
A mosquito 
My libido 
Yay! 
Hey!
Hey!

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 contagious 
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto 
An albino 
A mosquito 
My Libido 
Yay! 
Hey!
Hey!

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?
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 contagious 
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto 
An albino 
A mosquito 
My libido

has any1 heard the bootlegged copy of this with RHCP and Cobain singing? if so, can you tell me where and whe it was and who is on the Trumpet? Its a good effect, especially when he goes into the main melody on the trumpet.

Haha I was watching a documentry on kurts life the other day and i saw a live performance of a version of 'Smells like teen spirit'
the first lyrics were
"load up on guns and kill ur friends"
then went on to say other wacked shit
it was funny as
Kurt was, is and will always be THE ONE AND ONLY master of grunge music!!!!!!

RIP kurt
I LOVE YOU

TOECRUSHER HOW THE HELL CAN YOU HAVE A GUITAR AND NOT PLAY IT?!?!?!?!?! i taught myself a whole song on guitar without lessons. Oh also, Kurt may have not been better than Hendrix or Zappa or Slash but he was the best at his style of guitar playing and if you played guitar you whould know that. Before i started drums, i heard some drummers and i sed 'seriously this drummer sucks'. but after my first lesson, i realized that-there is no such thing as a bad drummer, all drummers have their own style and the same goes for guitarists.if you dont play the instrument, you dont appreciate that this drummer/guitarist/bassist/whatever is not you, and they play how they like, and thats what makes punk,metal,garage whatever type of rock and all rock bands so good, because they are unique and you know one of the things that makes nirvana so good? what you are dissing.their style.
*for those about to rock, we salute you*

Kurt Cobain's death was a waste of a powerful musical mind. Kurt had rhythm in his soul, and he provided the soundtrack to our lives. Amen.

nevermind said "First of all anybody who says that Smells Like Teen Spirit is not Nirvana's best song is on Crank" and last I checked on not on crank so its not true... and as you mentioned it was one of the top 25 or what ever... and its always in the top 10 in the countdowns over in washington but thats because its the most played. if they played other songs more often so the people who didnt know nirvana wasnt a 1 hit wonder could figgure out pretty fast that they were an awsome band. I dono if its just here (redmond washington) but we have nightly nirvana... 3 songs in a row of nirvana at 8. 1 more oftenly heard and then 2 more rare songs... any way back to the point of we hear a variety is that the same elese where? (not just lithium, rape me, about a girl and the commons)

I love Nirvana. It's classic and will NEVER go out of style.

I think this song is about apathy of teens today. The title "smells like teen spirit" is sarcastic...everyone just wants everyone to take care of their needs (here we are now/entertain us)

sorry if i'm thinkin too deep 4ya
