Old Age Lyrics

"We're rollin..."

One more day to complete my service
One more high to decay my nervous
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more day to complete my service
One more time here to find my servant
One more day to find a way
It's over
She seems to read minds
And I know a later time
We could make it with you
We're the same

Old age (x4)

One more day to complain, my servant
One more doubt here to find a servant
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

Wondering how I'm here date my cover
One more doubt here to save my nerves
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

She seems to read minds
And I know a later time
We can make it with you
Leave the soul

Old age

Just you need and read you free
Hmmmo
And knew
You read
You flew
Ooo
Hmmmmm

One more day to complete my service
One more hour here to find my nerves
Someday I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more doubt here to claim my supper
I can have anything you wanted
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

He seemed to read minds
And I know we're out of time
Breathe away here with you
Dream the same on the dew
Breathe the same on her
Breathe to moan on a man
Breathe and shame on you
He's late

Old age

"...or we could fade out"

A 1:10 clip of this song surfaced in the late '90s ('97 or '98?) when The Stranger published an article on their site and included links to the song in both WAV and RealAudio formats. Krist Novoselic was rumored to have been the person that provided the tape to The Stranger. The song was originally found on an early '90s boombox recording that was given to Butch Vig a week before the Nevermind sessions.

Kurt Cobain later gave the song to Courtney Love and Hole released their rendition on some formats of the '93 EP Beautiful Son, which featured a photo of a young Cobain as the front artwork. Hole also released the song on My Body, The Hand Grenade in '97, and played the song during their 1995.02.14 Unplugged session.

Fake instrumentals of this song have circulated. Apparently someone wanted to prove how easy it was to fool people.

do the guy who asked, what has kurt cobain done for music lately, how about "you know your right", a great song, and there are alot of kids now who are still just getting into nirvana now, which is awesome cuz that just proves that nirvana aint dead yet, and only 3 days till the nirvana box set (except for all you lucky basterds who are getting it on the 22nd)
