I have no idea what this song is really about but this is what I’ve always assumed. It seems partly to be about her relationship to Cobain. I could be completely wrong, but the line about “Four Seasons and Hyatts” is pretty telling. It’s a really great song anyway. One of my favorites from her.
[Intro]
Mhm, okay
This song is called
Look, I'm out of breath
Now, this one's called "Camden Town Rain"
[Verse 1]
She's pretty on the inside
She's pretty on the outside
I hope she's got the heart to back it up
She's got a whole, whole lot of style
She's got everything I lack
She stole my dawn before my day began
Let her keep it, I don't want it back
[Chorus]
She's your sister, you're her brother
Couldn't ask for any other
She's your best friend and your lover
She don't fade
She's got your smile in her locket
As she's walking through the Camden Town rain
[Verse 2]
She's easy to look at
But still so hard to see
Snow-white tan, she'll bitch at her fans
In a dress from Agnes B
And I was sleeping on some bus
While she was sleeping in your arms
She got Four Seasons and Hyatts
While I got a daybreak view from a Greyhound
Oh, but if east is east and west is west
I double dare you, don't confess
The Heaven's shoe he promised you
Is often less than what you get
And what you might have expected
[Verse 3]
So I guess I'll end it here
'Cause your love for her is clear
The wedding ring and lovely things
To keep throughout the years
And there's nothing left to say
And there's nothing left to do
But keep in mind from time to time
I'll always think the world of you
[Chorus]
But she's your sister, you're her brother
Couldn't ask for any other
She's your best friend and your lover
She don't fade
She's got your smile in her locket
As she's walking through the Camden Town rain
