Song lyrics
She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for 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! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice

She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for 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
Your advice
Your advice

this song is great. i really really love it a lot. The first time i heard it i balled my eyes out. There is soo mcuh passion in it. wow.. can't even xplain it. [offtopic]
Please lay off courtney. she didn't kill him. i am the biggest kurt cobain fan there is and since he was 7 he had been talkin about suicide and how he had the "suicide genes" in him because of relatives who had. He knew he was going to commit suicide. So please let's have empathy for Courtney and Frances and let kurt live on. I think it is what he would want to do.

haha i gotcha.. i didn't think you meant it in a nasty way anyway. AND.. i have been reading a lot of people's posts about how courthey killed kurt... and so i did some research and i guess i was probably wrong. i mean i guess we will never know but there is a lot of evidence against suicide and for murder.. i may have been wrong..

hey,

starting off: amazing song, amazing vocals, amazing guitar. as if everyone hasn't established that already.

question #1: wouldn't it suck to be kurt and courtney's daughter?
i mean for one thing: it seems like everyone knows your dad but you because he "commited suicide" when you were two-ish *murder?*. many people believe that it was your mom who killed him or at least hired an assasin. you see his face everywhere: websites, magazines, newspapers. it's as if he's haunting you. and the sad part is, you're his own daughter and you probably don't even remember his face *outside of photographs and maybe the occasional home video*. your mom is often found in magazines for scandalous stunts such as stripping and crashing concerts and such. she did heroin when she was pregnant with you. i mean i've never met her, i'm not a huge fan of her, but she doesn't seem like the best person to raise a child. especially after being widowed.

question #2: do you think kurt was murdered or suicidal [look on the bright side of suicide.]? personally i think the suicide is bs, although there is evidence to suggest both.

thanks,
adriana.

they should make the rating higher than 5, just for this one song. i love it. no better combination of chords and lyrics ever came out of kurts head.

its irrelevent, what happened after kurt wrote the song, what matters is that while he wrote it he was in love with courtney. thats all i really care about.

It's actually a LOVE song. Not a mock love song. The end. And Courtney Love? Yeah, she's not that smart. I adore her, and I adore Kurt and Nirvana. IF SHE KILLED HIM, SHe'D BE IN JAIL. PERIOD!!! Go fucking look at her lyrics, damnit. Celebrity Skin - american Sweetheart are ALL about him, EVERY SONG. You people are so ignorant.

kurt cobain put every thing into this video, from the fat women's insides to the little girl's kkk outfit. no one will ever understand kurt, never, not even that murderous bitch courtney, how could she do something like that. she's just fukd up in the head and didn't understand him like most the girls i know! email me with anything u want at jey_star@hotmail.com

I did read it. And cobaincase.com or whatever. I fucking read it all. I obsessed over it! I read and read and read and you know what? I still think that there are some things unclear but overall, she misses and loves the fucker. And you know, I love Kurt and Nirvana but you fans who think you're 'real fans' are shitty people. Leave the man alone, let him rest in fucking peace. Get the hell over it. He's a genius, but he killed HIMSELF. THE END.

i don't worship nirvana, just because i think there have been artists who have sung and played guitar better than kurt. but i reckon this song is ace.
