The rest of the song is Kurt Cobain spitting in the face of his "self-appointed judges." "That's obviously the state I feel right now... not really, but I may as well make some sarcastic comment on the phenomenon of Nirvana," Cobain told writer Michael Azerrad. In liner notes he wrote (and then crossed out) for "Serve the Servants," he noted that the lyrics were directed toward his father: "I don't hate him. I simply don't have anything to say to him." (Rolling Stone Magazine) Tuning: Half Step Down. Equipment used: Fender Kurt Cobain Jaguar, SansAmp Classic and Fender Mustang IV amp. Lyrics: Teenage angst has paid off well Now I'm bored and old Self-appointed judges judge More than they have sold If she floats than she is not A witch like we had thought A down payment on another One at salem's lot Serve the servants - Oh no [x4] That legendary divorce is such a bore As my bones grew they did hurt They hurt really bad I tried hard to have a father But instead I had a dad I just want you to know that I Don't hate you anymore There is nothing I could say That I haven't thought before Serve the servants - Oh no [x4] That legendary divorce is such a bore Nirvana serve the servants guitar cover
