Milk It - is the eighth song on Nirvana's third and last studio album In Utero. It's featured as a B-side of the "Heart-Shaped Box" single.
Milk it has very quiet verses and a very loud chorus. The lyrics touch on medical themes, just like the majority of tracks on In Utero. According to Cobain 'Milk It' is "an example of the more experimental and aggressive direction the band’s music had been moving in the months prior to the sessions at Pachyderm Studio".
Lyrics:
I am my own parasite
I don't need a host to live
We feed off of each other
We can share our endorphins
Doll steak!
Test meat!
Look, on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight, I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
I own my own pet virus
I get a pet and name her
Her milk is my shit
My shit it is her milk
Test meat!
Doll steak!
Look, on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight, I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Doll steak!
Test meat!
Look on the bright side is suicide
Lost eyesight I'm on your side
Angel left wing, right wing, broken wing
Lack of iron and/or sleeping
Protector of the kennel
Ecto-plasma, Ecto-skeletal
Obituary birthday
Your scent is still here in my place of recovery!
