"Lounge act" - utwór Nirvany z drugiego albumu studyjnego "Nevermind"

Etymologia zwana również źródłosłowem tytułowego utworu traktuje o przekonaniu członków zespołu o tym, że basowa zagrywka na początku tej piosenki brzmi jak coś kiepskiego, brzmiącego jakby było zagrane w hotelowym holu (ang. lounge).

Nic bardziej mylnego! Przekozacka zagrywka na basie! Zrywna, energiczna, porywająca. Od godziny chodzi mi po głowie i będziemy wraz z córką uczyć się jej. I my ją zagramy!

A tekst? Też niczemu sobie. Ponoć Kurt napisał te słowa po tym, jak rzuciła go dziewczyna o imieniu Tobi Vail.

"Lounge act" - Nirvana
słowa: Kurt Cobain

Truth - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
I'd like to, but it couldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
Don't regret a thing

And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself,
I'll wear a shield
I'll go outta my way to prove I still
Smell her on you

Don't - tell me what I wanna hear
Afraid of never knowing fear
Experience anything you need
I'll keep fighting jealousy
'til it's fucking gone

And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself,
I'll wear a shield
I'll go outta my way to prove I still
Smell her on you

Truth - covered in security
I can't let you smother me
Like to but it couldn't work
Trading off and taking turns
I Don't regret a thing

And I've got this friend, you see
Who makes me feel
And I wanted more than I could steal
I'll arrest myself,
I'll wear a shield
I'll go out my way to make you a deal
We've make a pact to learn from who
And ever we want without new rules
Then We'll share what's lost and what we grew
They'll go out of their way
To prove they still

Smell her on you
They still, Smell her on you
Smell her on you
