Territorial Pissings

Nirvana · Nevermind

Come on people now, smile on your brother and
everybody get together, try to love one another right now

When I was an alien, cultures weren't opinions

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Never met a wise man, if so it's a woman


Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after you

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, a better way, when I'm there
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Gotta find a way, to find a way, when I'm here
Gotta find a way - a better way - I'd better wait

Territorial Pissings

Territorial Pissings stands as a frenetic standout on Nirvana's landmark 1991 album, Nevermind. The track captures the band's signature grunge intensity, driven by Kurt Cobain's aggressive vocal delivery and a relentless, distorted guitar riff. Unlike the melodic hooks found elsewhere on the record, this song leans into a raw, chaotic energy that reflects the group's early punk influences. It serves as a dynamic bridge between the album's softer moments and its heavier, more abrasive numbers. The recording remains a testament to the band's ability to balance accessibility with experimental edge, showcasing their mastery of dynamic shifts within the grunge genre. As part of a definitive era in alternative rock history, the song continues to resonate for its unfiltered power and distinctive sonic texture.
