Old Age (Boom Box 91) Lyrics
And I am afraid
It's a fire
Our house is gone
and I refrain
are you God
are you God
You little boy (one?)
Your knotted fingers meet the floor
And now like a baby he ignores
And you walk like a baby
free spin flowers beneathe your ray
Your silent bit and I will sway (say?)
The sea infront of me away (see in the flower?)
And I know
baby
Verse:
Keep it down too one most precious (specialist?)
One more high and I'll free my servants
Someday I will find my way to something (allow my way to something?)
It's my card (hard?) to believe my service
Come inside of her inner circles
Someday I walk behind away it's over
Chorus:
She seems to read minds
when(And?) I'm deaf dumb and blind
Where's the friend (where's the frame I used?)
She's the same.
Old Age
Verse 2:
Some are killed and some are willing
some were kind and I feigned my service
Someday I won't find my way it's over
This young Mary (He owns care?) relieves my servants
Wipe my eyes(One more high?) and awake my servants
Someday I will find my way to something (allow my way to something?)
Chorus 2:
She seems to read minds
when I'm deaf dumb and blind
Face to Face in the mirror
we survived.(reason fame?)
Old Age
Bridge:
It's such a fantasy (suck afraid of seehind your own pee?)
You're all weak
Come on higher way (come on high and be to see?)
I'm begging see?
Verse 3:
One more high and I face my service
Coming down to relieve my servants
Someday I will(allow?) find my way to monday
Secondary complete my service
One more high and I won't be nervous (servants)
Someday I will find my way to sunday (someday)
Chorus 3:
She seems to remind
when I'm deaf dumb and blind (that I'mm dead, bumb and blind?)
Weigh the frame I use
Jesus Saves
Old Age
Jesus Saves
Old Age..

One of my favs. This is how I have always heard it...the are parts i just don't know what i hear
Am I afraid to find her Oh she's gone and I refrain you gone you go you ain't no more and oh the pain in me before And now like a baby being ignored oh I want to obey me feeds me power and need the grain Be silent bit and I will say you see empower me away And I and I hey
Verse: Keeping down due to one more stresses One more high and I'll free my servants Someday I will allow my way to something It's not hard to relieve my service Come inside of her inner circles Someday I walk behind away it's over
Chorus: She seems to read minds And I'm deaf dumb and blind Frame to frame my use She's the same.
Old Age
Verse 2: Some are gone and some are wanting some were kind and I feigned my service Someday I won't find my way to sober it's unfair he believes my servant One more hour and awake my servant Someday I will allow my way to something

Chorus 3: She seems to read minds and I'm deaf dumb and blind Way the frame I use Jesus Saves

Amazing version of this BEATIFUL song! Congratulations cobainsprodigy for writing down the words,I personally would've never managed that(it's impossible to understand what the hell Cobain is murmuring-I personally believe he is simply trying to keep up with the music without paying any attention to what he is saying,at least at some parts he is obviously doing that).Anyways,I was taken aback when I realised he was singing in the end of the song "Jesus saves".I was under the impression that he was not a christian so I came up with this theory(based on my belief that he was not a christian-correct me if I'm wrong): "Old age" is the age when many people start believing in the "Lord Jesus Christ" so that they "shalt be saved".I think he is mocking the fact that a lot of people turn to religion when they reach the "Old age" because they are afraid of what is coming next -death,hell,anything.This is how I connect the line "Jesus saves" with the rest of the song(what is understandable of it anyways). I adore this song no matter what is the "true" meaning of it! The music is my favourite Nirvana music,so sad and yet so beatiful.
Rest in peace Kurt,you're alive through your music
best version of this song
My favourite nirvana song, ever... I think his voice is great in this song, just kinda hard to understand. I can't find it anywhere though, I can only listen to it on youtube, kinda sucks. But still, my favourite nirvana song :)
