In Bloom lyrics

Sell the kids for food
Weather changes moods
Spring is here again
Reproductive glands

He’s the one
He likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
And I say
He’s the one
He likes all our pretty songs
And he likes to sing along
And he likes to shoot his gun
But he knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
And I say yeahhh

We can have some more
Nature is a whore
Bruises on the fruit
Tender age in bloom

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
Knows not what it means
And I say
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 knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
And I say yeahhh

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 knows not what it means
Knows not it means
And I say
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 knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
Knows not what it means
And I say yeahhh

I think this has to do with something about teenagers being able to have sex for the first time...

Yeah...

I think it's about Kurt's distaste for all of the jocks and big-heads who he hated throughout high school suddenly becoming his biggest fans. The lyrics to this song are almost meaningless on purpose, reflecting the irony of those fans who say they're into the music but don't have a damn clue as to what Kurt is singing about.

This song is about Eddy Veder of Pearl Jam, Kurt and Eddy had a bad relationship i heard a long time ago, and this song describes how Eddy thinks he's a fan but he doesn't know what any of the lyrics mean

according to "legend" (haha) this song is supposed to be about a specific Fan Of Nirvana whose name escapes me right now, but he was a friend of Kurt's that later on sold him THE shotgun

The song immortalizes his friend, a fellow musician, gun lover, and addict. They were activity partners, like the kind at summer camp, except in a Herbert Hunkle kind of way.

this song is about a friend of kurt named darryl something i think. it was a guy who got kurt to shoot a gun (before then he hated guns and hated this guy shooting guns.) he also didn't really pay attention to lyrics as well. read "heavier than heaven" and it will explain most of the songs. others are rather self explanitory such as 'mexican seafood'
