Nirvana - Swap Meet Lyrics
[x3]
They lead a lifetime that is comfortable
They travel far to keep their stomachs full
They make their living off of arts and crafts
The kind with seashells, driftwood and burlap
The Sunday swap meet is a battle ground
She loves him more than he will ever know
He loves her more than he will ever show
Keeps his cigarettes close to his heart
Keeps her photographs close to her heart
Keeps the bitterness close to the heart

Nirvana Swap Meet Comments
That riff sounds like Bad Guy.
No matter what life dishes up, I alway come back to this. Music is the only real truth.
This album is the beginning and ending of grunge.
Все так же пиздато
There are at least two early Nirvana songs that reference a flea market/swap meet situation with seashells, driftwood and burlap being mentioned specifically. Here in swap meet, and again in Mrs Butterworth. Both songs have a very cynical tone to them and seem to be mocking their subjects as boring kinds of old people.
That chorus sounds like motorhead.
ascoltatelo in .wav , sonorità mancante
Dat intro riff
Keeps the cigarettes close to his HEART!!!
Grunge, hard rock, heavy metal, alternative metal, noise rock, experimental rock, psychedelic rock, garage rock, post-punk
Kurt had a great story telling ability that made his songs feel personal.
"keep those internets close to the heart!"
he really knew what was up back in 89
😂😂😂 best post I've read in years!
I just searched Swap Meet....How the F.. is a dude who sounds like a microwave at the Number 1. Spot??
Why did you type swap meet in the first place?
@SmashyPlays Because I want to hear the song, maybe?
Going to goodwill
Best track on album besides Blew and Scoff
hows this for arts and crafts?
Por que muchos dicen que bleach es una mierda no se pero para mi suena bastante bien en la mayoria de las canciones cada uno tiene sus gustos como dicen no? xD
Yeuteamo
Swap Meet, Big Cheese, Blew, Floyd The Barber, School, Peper Cuts, Scoff, Sifting... You cannot chose the song,killer album!
Only Real grunge fans is listen to this Best song from nirvana
Verga esta madre no la dejo de escuchar
Now entering: Real fans zone
Good my like!!
Smells like teen spirit
Swap Meet
School
Serve the servants.
Yep definitely songs about teenage anger and rebellion
i love the chorus
I owned this album as a teen. Reminded me of my dear gramps, who went to swap meets
30 years!
Kurt's vocals are orgasmic in this track
theres real fans who listen to songs and enjoy every one
then theres the diehards like me who are fucked up in the head beyond recovery
Bleach are so Grunge ♥★♥★
You're so hot 😍
killer riff
favorite nirvana song by far. Amazing writing
This is where I meet true fans
one of thr best nirvana songs ever. period. that loopdy loo sort of feeling of lets have a good time!
Bleach is their best. Sorry Dave
Incesticide in utero
Everyone who says Bleach is their best record is obviously either sick of Nevermind and In Utero or high. Bleach is great but it's basically a demo & the songs are not as good. I think all 3 records & all the covers n bootlegs are great too !
This is a really exhausting song to play on guitar
He loves her more than he will ever show... (love experts)
Passa os anos é gosto mais ainda dessas músicas
First album I got from Nirvana. Love it
I love lorn but nirvana will always be on top
I remember learning this song and always having such a blast running through it with an old drummer of mine, what a great freakin set of riffs, kurt was an amazing songwriter
"Keeps his cigarettes close to his HaaarrAart."!!!!!
"She loves him more than he will ever know, he loves her more than he will ever show"
WHY AM I CRYING IN THE MIDDLE OF A HARDCORE SONG
This is me and my boyfriend's song.
I bought this track at a swap meet
The album you mean???
this is rage and dispaoinmaentvs human!
fuckhe is right
So sad that many people are calling themselves ' fans ' but they don't know a damn song of Bleach..oh ... Instead of " About a girl " ;/
Uhhh if you like the music you're a fan. Simple as that. To say someone doesn't really like the music just cause they don't know the names of songs sounds pretty stuck up
Me mata el sonido de la batería! Es mejor que un orgasmo.
Super fun to play on bass
This album is so raw. Punches you right in the gut.
I Love Nirvana
michael. I love Nirvana more:)))
esto lo describo con 3 palabras extraño, único, y agresivo
They make their living off of arts and crafts.
John Doe. The kind with seashells, driftwood, and BURLAAAAAAAP
Keep the bitterness close to the heeaaaaaaart *cue badass riff*
Wow this is so underrated. Fuck.
Phonies, sheep always jumping on bandwagons find your own thing oh I love that term "in they nirvana phase" Kurt cobain's music will never get old and this general attitude towards the state of the world... fuck me he was light years ahead and remember he was only 27 when he went.
One of best Nirvana songs.
Thank u Lain
Kurt mother fucking cobain.

His voice sounds so sexy when he sings ''heart'' :')
Cheerio Totoro keep Nirvana close to the heart😃
thats what a groupie said
Cheerio Totoro JESUS I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS LIKE THAT
Cobain was a whiny liberal homo but goddamn did he make good music
Well you kinda need to be a whiny liberal fag in order to produce art, I mean what kind of self-respecting conservative would bet their future on becoming a successful singer? We tend to go for engineering, the trades and entrepreneurship, meanwhile millions upon millions of libtards try to "make it" with their worthless liberal arts degrees but only end up working at McDonald's with tons of student debt. Nevertheless when one out of a few millions of them actually makes it big they usually produce amazing songs and movies, inspired by pain and their own chaotic/degenerate lifestyles.
Edward Armstrong so what do you go for
daneman63 ew, a homophobic shithead
Edward Armstrong What a try-hard ‘conservative’, even faintly autistic way of thinking. Anyway you’re conflating real talent, which often gets overlooked by moronic marketing and corporate obsession with shortest time/cost, with the mass of self-indulgent hacks and ‘art students’ out there who are in it for the glamorous idea only.
youre a fucking idiot
The best track off the Bleach
Velha Psicodélica I don't know, Paper Cuts is incredible too
There's plenty of 'em :) Bleach is full of great songs! Yet it's so underrated album.. sad but screw it Real fans will enjoy it anyway:)
Cheers from Poland people! :-)
Mr.Moustache!!
Can you hear 2 different rhythms in intro? :)
Yeah i heard that. I was thinking the same thing
Daniel Loewnau Fuck Yes ! the drums are magicians !!!! the same is for Rope - Foo Fighters!

Now smells like poopoo has a billion
ALTAMUSICA JAJA OGT
cobain's riffs are so original and weird. NO one will ever do this again. This is true outsider art.
+Nicholas Fanzo
These riffs sound pretty similar to Melvins, Kurt basically ripped them off.
@Hjâłté W a n g I wanna hear buddy. I love shit like this
Yeah everyone forgets Nirvana was just a perfect mash of Pixies and Melvins , COBAIN was just a flat out more talented lyricist etc ;)
@m z
Melvins and old school White Zombie
Nicholas Fanzo
- I agree. They won't because most guitarists want people to think they actually know how to play...
WHO PUT 11 DISLIKES WHO DID IT!
+hash LIX wut?
+John Gomez ur so right my friend
+☮XICS☮ k
+hash LIX good
Have them killed
They lead a lifestyle that is comfortable.
Keep their bitterness close to the heart
They traveled far to keep their stomachs full. They made a living off of arts and crafts
I'm too old now Kurt. Fuck man, 22 years, time is passing by quickly. Miss you man.
ntspang No one is too old for Nirvana!
they should've done some heavy shit like this again.
Motherfuckig Hell YEES bitch!!!!!!
milk it
Yeah I love how this song sounds so influenced by the melvins
Seriously? Have you heard In Utero?
Milk it
Best nirvana intro song
:Lithium" is better and "Come As You Are" too (my opinion)
Brilliant tune xx
"She loves him more than he will ever know/he loves her more than he will ever show" i.e. most my love relationships...LOL
... "LOL"?
1989. Fucking 1989.
My favorite song off Bleach!!! <3
1989.....Fuck yeah!!!
Not digging Bleach much compare to their later stuff but thi songs has a touch of their later sound at least.
El primer y, a mi entender, mejor album de Nirvana... después las drogas pesadas destruyeron su capacidad de sentir... lo mismo que le pasó a Blak Sabbat (el primer black sabbat). Por eso perdieron la magia, que era pura potencia y emoción. El ultimo album: una cagada. QEPD. LAS DROGAS NOS VUELVEN PSICÓPATAS ASESINOS O MÁRTIRES SUICIDADS. O J O !!!
+Diego Costanzo Estás loco.
el último álbum fue el mejor
el in utero es tan bueno como el bleach. Estas mal del cerebro
+Diego Costanzo evangelico tarado, hablando weas para variar.
+Diego Costanzo Todos sus álbumes son buenos, In Utero fue el mejor de ellos, a pesar de drogarse seguía siendo un genio
I learned their unkown song labeled "Mrs. Butterworth" became this song.
I see it
I can hear buzz osborne's influence
Keeps his cigarettes close to his heart . Keeps his photograph close to her hearrrrt
Bleach = best album. Swap Meet = best track on Bleach.
One word....School
Paper cuts*
I love sifting.. that's my favorite off of the Bleach album
Nah I’d say negative creep
No way, pal. We may look real oldschool fans, but c'mon. Never mind is a legend not only for rock but for world music
me encanta este albun
If you don't like Bleach... then you don't like Nirvana... and if you don't like Nirvana... THEN I DON'T LIKE YOU!!!
mike oliver I freaking love Bleach!!!
You can like a band, and his albums, you don't need to like all albums as an order, you can just not hear one, and not only for that you dont like the fucking band, so stfu... i hate this type of coments, let the people hear the songs, god.
If you don't like Nirvana, go fuck yourself over and over
Musically this album is ...less inspiring. Still it is good. Dont get your panties in a twist k.
Chad Channing was a much more interesting and creative drummer than Dave Grohl.
Eh that’s a tricky subject, Dave is objectively better then chad in skill, but it’s up to opinion who fits in with the band better, Dave on bleach would have been wierd but chad on in utero would have been wierd
Well, Dave is more powerfull but Chad Channing was more versatile. Chad used to play double bass drum, for example, in Big Cheese. Dave Grohl never played double bass drum.
IronicKismet , Thats right, yet...Dave Played better...
Love them both....
Dave is a clear winner
IronicKismet obviously everyone has an opinion. Yours just happens to be wrong. Dave's a much better drummer in every sense. What do you think his drumming & vocals on Nevermind had anything to do with it's sucess.
Fair enough, sir.
