I Smell Sex And Candy
Nirvana · Other Songs - Nirvana
And I had so much time
To sit and think about myself
And then there she was
Like double cherry pie
Yeah, there she was
Like disco superfly
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
Mama, this surely is a dream, yeah
Yeah mama, this surely is a dream [Incomprehensible]
Hangin' 'round downtown by myself
And I had too much caffeine
And I was thinkin' 'bout myself
And then there she was
In platform double suede
Yeah, there she was
Like disco lemonade
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
Mama, this surely is a dream, yeah
Yeah mama, this surely is a dream, [Incomprehensible]
Yeah mama, this surely is a dream, yeah
I smell sex and candy here
Who's that lounging in my chair?
Who's that casting devious stares in my direction?
Mama this surely is a dream [Incomprehensible]
Yeah, mama this surely is a dream
Yeah, mama this surely is a dream, yeah
Yeah, mama this must be my dream
I Smell Sex And Candy
I Smell Sex And Candy stands as a notable deep cut within the Nirvana catalogue, showcasing the band's ability to blend grunge intensity with quirky, introspective songwriting. Often associated with their later recording sessions, the track reflects the experimental edge Kurt Cobain brought to the group's evolving sound. While not as ubiquitous as their radio staples, the song captures the raw energy and emotional volatility that defined the Seattle scene. It serves as a compelling example of how the band explored darker, more complex themes beyond their standard grunge formula. Listeners familiar with the group's broader discography will recognize the distinct guitar textures and vocal delivery that characterize this period. The recording remains a cherished element for fans seeking to understand the full scope of the band's creative output during their most prolific years.
