Pynchon Music: Nirvana

Load up on guns and 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?
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
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
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard
It was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
A denial…

I’ll tell you it’s just —out, —ray, —juss,
Spirit is so —on, —tay, —juss,
Nobody knows their a-ges…
Walkin’ through bees of hon —ney,
Throwin’ away —that —mon, —ney,
Laughin’ at things so —fun —ny,
Spirit’s comin’ through —to, —you!
Nev —ver, —mind, watcha hear from your car,
Take a lookit just —how —keen —they are,
Nev —ver, —mind, —what, your calendar say,
Ev’rybody’s nine months old today! Hey,
Pages are turnin’ pages.
Nobody’s in —their, —ca, —ges,
Spirit’s just so —con, —ta, —gious—
Just let the Spirit —move, —for, —you!
