(New Wave) Polly
Nirvana · From The Muddy Banks of The Wishkah
Think I should get off her first
Think she wants some water
To put out the blow torch
Isn't me
Have a seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut Yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Heaven True
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Polly wants a cracker
Maybe she would like some food
She asked me to untie her
A chase would be nice for a few
Isn't me
Have a seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Have been true
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Polly said
Polly says her back hurts
She's just as bored as me
She caught me off my guard
Amazes me the will of instinct
Isn't me
Have a seat
Let me clip
Dirty wings
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself
Got some rope
Have been told
Promise you
Have been true
Let me take a ride
Cut yourself
Want some help
Please myself

The song features a driving bassline and layered vocals that evoke a sense of melancholic urgency, characteristic of Kurt Cobain's later work. It serves as a poignant reminder of the band's artistic evolution, bridging the gap between their raw early energy and the polished, introspective tone of their final recordings. As part of their extensive discography, the track remains a staple for fans exploring the nuances of Nirvana's musical legacy and the specific sonic textures of the early 2000s era.
