[Verse 1: Kurt Cobain & Dave Grohl]

I'll start this off without any words

I got so high, I scratched 'til I bled

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do?

The finest day that I've ever had

Was when I learned to cry on command

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do? (Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus: Kurt Cobain & Dave Grohl]

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

[Verse 2: Kurt Cobain & Dave Grohl]

My mother died every night

It's safe to say, don't quote me on that

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do?

The black sheep got blackmailed again

Forgot to put on the zip code

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do? (Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus: Kurt Cobain & Dave Grohl]

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)


[Bridge: Kurt Cobain]

Somewhere I have heard this before

In a dream my memory has stored

As a defense I'm neutered and spayed

What the hell am I tryin' to say?


[Verse 3: Kurt Cobain]

It is now time to make it unclear

To write off lines that don't make sense

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do?

One more special message to go

And then I'm done, and I can go home

Love myself better than you

I know it's wrong, so what should I do? (Ooh, ooh)

[Chorus: Kurt Cobain & Dave Grohl]

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

I'm on a plain (Ooh, ooh)

I can't complain (Ooh, ooh)

(I'm on a plain) Ooh, ooh

(I can't complain) Ooh, ooh
