Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice Lyrics
Like most babies smell like butter
His smell smelled like no other
He was born scentless and senseless
He was born a scentless apprentice
Every wet nurse refused to feed him
Electrolytes smell like semen
I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets
There are countless formulas for pressing flowers
Go away! Go away! Go away!
I lie in the soil and fertilize mushrooms
Leaking out gas fumes are made into perfume
Throw me in the fire and I won't throw a fit
Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away! Go away!

Nirvana Scentless Apprentice Comments
This is so abrasive and lond and noisy and the lyrics are dark and poetic, sounds like nirvana .
I just bought the book Perfume, and shit. Kurt had good taste in books.
Songs Like This Are Pretty Heavy
Somthing Like Milk it
Dave Grhol made good money on this
AAAAAAAAAAHOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAHOOOOO
-Kurt Cobain
I broke a second story window with my face while listening to this song. That's not a joke or a meme. So yeah it's pretty good.
Song that makes me sleep well
1:01 when BO2 kid's mom's enter the room
NIRVANA IN UTERO YOUTH KIDS PULLOVER HOODIE
https://dumanus.com/product/nirvana-in-utero-youth-kids-pullover-hoodie/
¡Es increíble esta batería de DAVE GROHL, aquí! Perfecta, orgánica, natural, a tiempo. Se adelanta, se retrasa, se abstrae de la guitarra y de los gritos maravillosos de Kurt y sigue inalterable y precisa. ETERNA. UNA VEZ EN LA VIDA y es la batería de Dave Grohl y fue en NIRVANA.
Screaming at 1:02 1:53 3:15. Turn volume down when approaching these time stamps.
Zeppelin 's Immigrant Song is somewhat felt in this (musically, not lyrically of course)
Milk and cookies > nirvana
The drums sound slower than I remember
You fire me, Cuz i quit
Steve albini's impact on the albume as a produser is really strong with this song
I scream like Nicolas cage every time says
GET AWAAAAAAAY!!! GET AWWWWAAAAAAAAYYY
This song signifies insanity
4-4-0-4-0-4444-0-4
Or
0-0-4-0-4-0000-4-0
You cant help me!
Why didnt come my father funeral kate?
I already knew this song existed, but LOST made me like it more.
Das parfum ❤️
Whooooooooaaaaaaaaaah got awaaaaay
His smell smelt like no other !!!!
Reff : kawai
Nirvana was like no other.
Thank you, kurt, for introducing me to this weird ass book. Its a good read guys!
26 October 2019...for me IN UTERO is the best album from NIRVANA...original sound...and this song is the most powerfull song from this album
Outstanding..ty..\m/
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAAAAAAAAAAY
sounds like it could be a Shellac song. fucking killer.
meditation music for RAGERS!!!
This and Slaves & Bulldozers... 🤘
There is a scene from Perfume where the main character retreats from humanity. He HATES humanity. The smell. The noise. I can't help feel Kurt was motivated by smell a lot as well as the imagery of flowers, scent and emotion. He empathises with the main character who of course resorts to murder. Kurt to suicide.
Wait. This song could be about 45 😆😐
You can’t fire me cuz I QUIT
yesss! Just fking do it already
His smell smelled like no other
He was born scentless and SENSELESS
He was born a scentless apprentice
And at the end of the book, his followers/worshippers mob-out and devour entirely until there isn’t a shred of him left not even a scrap of his mahfkkn SHIRT.
☝️😈
quit while you still can run,
run dick run
Fortunately you can't inform others while being uninformed. Poor righteous teachers. There is always a way out. Quitting is the easiest. Death comes for us all. DAATH is knowledge. A spirit is eternal. Infinity is an idea. Quit? Quit what? People are still suffering because the scriptures have not been exercised. Nor is there proper education into spiritual matters.
Bodhisattvamahlik
Quitting is the most difficult of all.
Seems it can kill a man.“And give him him wings where he once had shoulders, smooth as ravens claws.”
Religion is fine and dandy until it’s involved in our government. Then it’s got to go because this is the United States not a fascist nation.
@Oriel Collins Amen. I apologize for the wrong viewpoint. There is an illusion, or "myth" if you will about freedom. We are all one of a very dynamic community.
Dave Grohl actually wrote the riff and a few other parts of this song. quoted here https://youtu.be/gaQp4tFlfwY?t=4792
nirvana doesnt have one bad song.
I guess this is where people who actually like grunge hang around
https://youtu.be/ihwwL6WTpy8
“Throw me in a fire and I won’t throw a fit”
About to start reading perfume for my French class
This song is so filthy, painful, and awesome.
This song sucks
your mom sucks
@Курт Доналд Кобејн beat me to it lol
This really sounds like Big Black. You can hear the albino influence on this track
that drum is fucking lit!!!
hell yeah,this is the music that what my ears wants to hear
Jack Shepard brought me here.
1:00 1:50 3:09
I love your creative work, Kurt. I'll see you in heaven when Jesus comes for us
Kurt's going to hell with the rest of us :)
Let's play a fun game called What the Hell is Kurt Cobain Saying
The screaming part sounds like he’s saying “KAWAII!” to me for some reason
Meiyuu i agree xD
Awesome group, I remember in92.im 52now still love.
I lie in the soil and fertilize mushrooms
I love depressing flowers
If they had written some more lyrics, they would have made an artistic synopsis of the masterpfully written book The Perfume by
Patrick Süskind
Holy shit.. some of the most terrifying screams I've ever heard. Black metal or death metal doesn't stand a fucking chance to this.
i could listen to the main riff all day
Came here from cobain montage of heck
Ahh reminds me of high school in the 90s. So much angst haha
Everyone please give jimi Hendrix respect. Nirvana copied the shit out of his song, little miss lover
The intro of this song has been stuck in my head for 24 years and probably will be for a very long time
Sensacional!
This made me confused which one I like most Scentless apprentice , Blew or school or Dumb or Sliver or Pennyroyal tea or you know you're right or spank thru or In bloom or Rape me or lithium or Heart shaped box or Polly or come as you are or something in the way or Stay away or sliver or I hate myself I want to die or drain you or maybe I love every songs of Nirvana those all are good songs even we didn't include smells like teen spirit. Kurt was genius with song writing . And the way he created songs with few goods that was beyond everything . All true Nirvana fan misses Kurt .....Krist never thought probably that's how they end. People who covers his song unable to create something new like him except for Dave Grohl . He made foo fighter but it's totally different band from Nirvana. I admire hard work of Dave Grohl . But Kurt and Krist are Nirvana. Fun fact is both starts with K and end with t.
Awesome just awesome makes me wannabe leave my girlfriend
This song will always go hard.
Probably the heaviest non-metal song ever.
Absolutely love this song beginning to end... Everytime I hear it. Ever since I first heard it in 2006. (12 yrs old) the lyrical content, Dynamics, structure, imagery everything! A+
this is always, always, one of the songs I go to whenever I'm experiencing something so very intense. this song makes things hurt less. along with endless nameless.
"Electrolytes smell like semen" is a surprisingly disturbing thought
You can feel his pain
U can't fire me cuz I QUIT! $UCKTHAT COURTNEY LOVE U MERDEROUS HEATHEN
After I read perfume I didn't know kurt makes song about this novel. And then I got this song, this is exactly how I felt the story of the book is so fucked up. You should read the novel.
What a song.
Nice lead
Darker forces lead no rhythm here but, trying to find better humor in dating opens up better vent stuff
Paradoximity not tree I thought here.
Am I the only one who noticed that it says, "Lyrics", but there are no lyrics? Wtf?!
it's in the description, click show more.
Kurt Cobain invented Ear rape with this song
Dun dun dunnu...dunuhnuh nuhnuh...dun dun dunnu...dunuhnuh nuhnuh...
Bumpin the 90's
Grohl never used a double pedal. Just so you know.
Every wet nurse refused to feed him..nm
ROCK FROM THE GODS!!
What’s ur guys favorite part?
Love Nirvana
Lost S03 E22-23
Through the Looking Glass
Kawaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Mezquilla ggs hahaha xd
first i listened this song with no knowledge, i was shocked how deep he got stressed... .
oh, does it stand on novel? ... but his scream expresses something like big magma of torture, i think.
sounds like them bones by alice in chains
is it just me hearing it or what ?
I was high when I heard the go away part, I had a motherfucking panic attack
Listen to this on DXM.
get your Slipknot out of my Nirvana
GO AWAYYYY!!!
Kurt 💛❤️
In an interview, Kurt Cobain said that he used the book "Perfume: The story of a murderer - Patrick Süskind" as his source for inspiration. He told his interviewer that he read "Perfume" atleast 10 times in his life, and that he always liked anatomy and even thought that he, i qoute "maybe wanted to be a doctor or something". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CTsGievjMU <- the interview. It was one of the last interviews he ever gave. Watch 1:23 to see him talk about Nirvana - Scentless Apprentice. [I hope i contributed to the internet and that i gain interweb points <3]
It's simply not a good song. I love nirvana. They were a massive part of my adolescent years but we dont all have to pretend that every song was good because this one just isnt.
It's thrash metal
The comments section on Nirvana videos is always the worst.
Almost the intro beat from Foo Fighters "My Hero". Grohl partly wrote this song. Kurt thought it was bone-headish.
He keeps saying "Go away!"
We couldn't.
So he did.
He "quit!"
Now he's ACTUALLY lying in the soil and fertilizing mushrooms.
Think about how deep this song is.
It's almost like his retroactive death nell.
Best screeches in rock.
sooooooo angry!
I luv nirvana so much we luv and miss u Kurt
