This is the first known performance of Dumb. In 1993 it was officially released on Nirvana’s third studio album, In Utero. This earlier acoustic version was performed live on KAOS Radio on September 25, 1990. This recording has an alternative bridge to the In Utero track.
[Verse 1]
I'm not like them, and I can pretend
The sun is gone, and I had a light
The day is done, and I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
[Chorus 1]
Or maybe just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
[Verse 2]
My heart is broke, and I have some glue
Help me inhale, and mend it with you
We'll float around, and hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
[Chorus 2]
And have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
Have a hangover
[Bridge]
See a sun, can't go wrong
Breathing down, wear a frown
See your sad, have you lived
Who'd have known, beat me up
[Verse 1]
I'm not like them, and I can pretend
The sun is gone, and I had a light
The day is done, and I'm having fun
I think I'm dumb
[Chorus 1]
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
Think I'm just happy
[Outro]
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
I think I'm dumb
