Smells Like Teen Spirit
Fame On Fire Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Load up on guns, bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over-bored and self-assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino a mosquito, my libido

Yeah, hey yay

I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift, I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an Albino a mosquito, my libido

Yeah, hey yay

And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it's hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind

Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello, how low
Hello, hello, hello

With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino a mosquito, my libido

A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial




A denial
A denial, a denial, a denial, a denial

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Fame On Fire are a cover of the iconic song by Nirvana. The song is known for its grunge sound and rebellious lyrics, which encapsulate the spirit of the 1990s alternative rock scene.


The opening lines, "Load up on guns, bring your friends, it's fun to lose and to pretend," suggest a feeling of nihilism and rebellion. It implies a desire to break free from societal norms and expectations, embracing a raw and chaotic lifestyle. The reference to being over-bored and self-assured represents a state of disillusionment with the world and a search for authenticity.


The repeated lines of "Hello, hello, hello, how low" can be seen as a cry for connection and understanding. The repetition adds to the intensity of the song, emphasizing the frustration and angst. The line "A mulatto, an albino, a mosquito, my libido" is often interpreted as nonsensical, adding to the overall mood of confusion and alienation.


The chorus, "With the lights out, it's less dangerous, here we are now, entertain us, I feel stupid and contagious," reflects a sense of apathy and disconnection. It highlights the desire for entertainment and distraction as a means of escape from the monotony of life. The line "I'm worse at what I do best, and for this gift, I feel blessed" expresses a paradoxical sense of both pride and self-doubt. It reflects the struggle between conforming to societal expectations and embracing individuality.


Overall, "Smells Like Teen Spirit" captures the spirit of rebellion, angst, and disillusionment that defined the 1990s alternative rock scene. Its raw and energetic sound, paired with thought-provoking lyrics, made it a defining anthem of its time.
