Come As You Are (Live - Paradiso) Lyrics

[Spoken Segment: Kurt Cobain]
Punk-Rock should mean freedom. Liking and accepting anything that you like. Playing whatever you want, as sloppy as you want. As long as it's good and has passion

[Intro: Feedback]

[Verse 1]
Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time, hurry up
The choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend
As an old enemy

[Bridge]
Enemy
Enemy, yeah
Enemy, yeah

[Verse 2]
Come doused in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a trend
As a known–
[Bridge]
Enemy, yeah
Enemy, yeah
Enemy, yeah
Enemy, yeah

[Chorus]
And I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun

[Guitar Solo]

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
