Smells Like Teen Spirit

Load up on guns, 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? (3X)
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

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? (3X)
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 ["a denial" is added in the official lyrics, but I don't hear it in the performance.]

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? (3X)
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
A denial – a denial –
A denial – a denial –
A denial – a denial –
A denial – a denial –
A denial
