My life is shit
Shit
My life is bogus
Ball
My life is trite
Cry
My life is hell
Hell
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm going to die
Help my libido
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm going to die
Who wants to stay
Your life is shit
Shit
Your life is strange
And insane
Your life is lame, a type of crap
Your life is jail
Clam
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm gonna help out my libido
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm going to hell
To help my libido
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm going to hell
To help my libido
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm gonna die
Who wants to stay
Your life is shit
I'ma open myself up a flea market
I'ma open myself up a flea market
And you're gonna wish that you did
Might retire on the profits
First off
I'ma empty out all of my Mrs. Butterworth jars
I'ma put 'em on a shelf with my 800 dollar a month tax free Century 21, shop
And then I am going to put my Mrs. Butterworth syrup jars on the shelf
Next to all the commemorative fast food chain glasses and cups I've accumulated over the past 62 years
Then I'm going to get some plywood
I'm going to get some plywood and cut them up into two by two piece squares
Then I'm going to get some burlap and I'm going to cut them into two by two piece squares and then I'm going to put them onto the pieces of plywood
And then I'm going to go to the beach
I'm going to go to the beach and I'm gonna collect some shells and driftwood
And then I'm gonna take the shells and driftwood and glue them onto the plywood and burlap
And sell 'em for lots of money
People will be paying top dollar for my kids new used new toys and clothing
Then maybe someday I can get rid of that piss stained mattress I've been sleeping on..."
I'm gonna die
Start a new union
I'm gonna try
to help my libido
I'm gonna die
We'll start a new union
I'm going to die
Wear my libido
I'm going to die
We'll start a new union
I'm going to die
Wear my libido
I'm going to die
We'll start a new union
I'm going to die
Who wants to stay
This song reminds me so much of swap meet from bleach. The intro guitar riff is simular and the lyrics in the spoken part about selling burlap, driftwood and shells. I think the vocals in the verses in this song could've been better, but still it's a great song.

If any of you that are trying to interpret this song had read Kurt Cobain's journals, you'd know that this wasn't about him. It's about Krist.

Awesome | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/11/07
This song owns. In the refrain it's so jammin'. I love the spoken part too :). The first time I heard it I was like.... "WTF?" but then I laughed.
Well ... I think that Kurt was writing bout many important and non important things ... but well. that guy is a God and will remain as a God for me and all of those forgotten fans here.
*I'm gonna die to start a new union*
Here's what he says and done.
He died ... and he has gave us a new hope on his last breath.
His message was: Keep your eyes open, only you can handle your futur. Even if your life is a shit.

Enjoy the song, I doubt every song Kurt wrote was about his life. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, a song is whatever you make of it.
dumb ass | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/29/06
r u thick or what? u didnt exactly knw how Kurt was feelin, i mean, on a number of diff occasions he said he was happy ect. i mean he had a kid whom he loved to bits-shame about the choice of mother-she would do the world a favour if she had an overdose tomorrow ( and revealed all the unanswered questions about Kurts death ) GOD i hate her
this song is pratically kurt's life "your life is a shit" hello he hated his life and the whole flea market thing is total hick but hey that was kurt. in this song he proves his point by repeating himself numerous times.
