Every time that I sell myself to you
I feel a little bit cheaper than I need to
I will tear the petals off of you
Rose red, I will make you tell the truth

Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?

Every time that I stare into the sun
Angel dust and my dress just comes undone
Every time that I stare into the sun
Be a model or just look like one
Wild eye rot gut do me in
Do you think you can make me do it again?

Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?

If you live through this with me
I swear that I would die for you
And if you live through this with me
I swear that I would die for you

Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?

Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?

Ah ah ah ah

    I agree sick puppy people are way too obsessed with Kurt Cobain. This is why I hate Nirvana fans. We can't even comment on Hole without some retard jumping in talking about the same idiotic bullshit about how Courtney killed Kurt and anything to do with making out Kurt to be the poor saintly victim and Courtney the villain. And the only thing they can tell me is what Tom Grant told them and that is not a legitimate source for me. Maybe they are just jealous because Courtney got to be close to Kurt and they will never get the chance. ha ha. But Kurt hated most of his fans while he was alive the poor guy would hate to see what his fans are like today. The most dumb romanticizing morons who hate on his wife for no good reasons other than silly typical sexist shit that they've read.

    With that said-Courtney rocks and she is to me one of the greatest lyricists. There is a reason your precious Kurt loved her, they were two brilliant tortured minds with a lot of depth and soul and besides Courtney IS rock & roll Kurt called her the coolest girl in the world.
