Nirvana – Molly's Lips

"Molly's Lips" as written by Frances Mckee and Eugene Kelly....
She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as she stays with me
She said
She'd take me anywhere
She'd take me anywhere
As long as I stayed clean
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss
Molly's lips
Kiss kiss

    General CommentI think this song is about a guy who is or has been a drug addict and he has a girlfriend that wants him to "stay clean" and keep off the drugs. Maybe the girl doesn't trust the guy; "she'd take me anywhere, as long as she stays with me". As to the last part of the song, I have no idea. Maybe the guy likes kissing his girl.

    General CommentCome on. The Vaselines version is great and soft. Nirvana's version is rough and very cool. Both are great.

    Song MeaningxxxRaelenxxx nailed it, Molly is pure Ecstasy with no other substances added (tastes awful Btw), Taking it is often called "Kissing Molly". Good "Molly" is Said to be "Clean" meaning it has nothing else in it and you aren't getting ripped off...

    Sorry to all you who thought it was a love song but Eugene Kelly,lead singer of The Vaselines and the writer of this song, was known to have struggled with Ecstasy Addiction.

    General Commenti dont get you....

    but this is a cool song, i think its about being in love...or infatuation, like your willing to do pretty much anything to "kiss kiss"
