I've always thought that too. I mean taking a lyric like "I'm on warm milk and laxatives, Cherry-flavored antacids" fits the mood of Pennyroyal Tea like nothing else could. Same with "I am my own parasite, I don't need a host to live, We feed off of each other, We can share our endorphins", for Milk It.

I've always seen Cobain's lyrics as being very stream-of-consciousness. They're more about making sounds and images that fit the music than telling a story or expressing complex ideas. They fit very well with the overall cathartic quality of Nirvana's music


all this. Cobain's lyrics couldn't have been better.
