    I see lots of comments about how the lyrics are silly/simplistic, but it's actually quite impressive to create such an authentic voice/POV of a young child. Idk exactly why this song always hits me so hard...I guess it's because Kurt just actually transports me back to being a small child and the way it FELT. I always choke up and my eyes well with tears at the line "woke up in my mother's arms." Like I'm smiling, too. It's not sadness but just this huge rush of raw emotion.

Those songs weren't attempts to enter the pop industry though, rather they were meant to draw a small audience to them while still allowing the band to enjoy their punk rock style and heavy metal influences.
      The band has always had pop hooks.

      @@finna1002 About a girl attempted to experiment more with pop sounds. There was no intention of hitting the pop charts. Kurt actually fealt nervous by the release of, "about a girl" because it deviated more from his punk rock style. The reason he was experimenting with pop is because he knew that it drew in audiences.
      He never wanted the massive audience he ended up receiving, but wanted an audience nonetheless.
      The track was raw, not overly produced like sliver or the tracks on nevermind.
      The session to record all the songs on bleach took 30 hours in 2-3 takes.
      Sliver was the track that pivoted the band into the pop charts because of the amount of polishing and further emphasis on pop melodies and rifts. This was kurts baby to decide whether or not the band should go full pop.
      This is more clear when you realise tht sliver was released as a non-album single.

    Others may find the lyrics shallow and simply written, but I think it's clever. For me, this is a POV of a kid with nonexistent parents and was always left with someone else to take care of them (in this case, the grandma). In that sense, the words doesn't have to be too articulate. It's simple, realistic, and behind the happy tunes, lies the a sad truth that's happening to most kids. My interpretation only. I might be wrong, but this is how I see it.

    Verse 1]
    When Mom and Dad went to a show
    They dropped me off at grandpa Joe's

    [Chorus]
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!

    Mashed potatoes and stuff like that

    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    [Verse 3]
    She said, "Why don't you stop your crying?
    Go outside and ride your bike"
    That's what I did, I killed my toe!
    [Chorus]
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!
    [Verse 4]
    Well, after dinner I had ice cream
    I fell asleep and watched TV
    I woke up in my mother's arms!
    [Chorus]
    Grandma, take me home! Grandma, take me home!

      yeah but he did hate the world and offed himself which included all of his "real fans" friends, band mates, and family...I like nirvana music a lot but... i've never experimented with heroin and no one can know what torment he went through. unfortunately he, and the band are done for a reason. loser kids don't know who this band is and what was so special about feeling the energy of their music. They buy NIRVANA murch at hot topic or online wherever because people make tons of money off of his estate now. Anyways RIP to Kurt it is forgivable but not forgotten.

    I mean.. if I have to name one thing about this song that truly displays a simple yet mastered songwriting sensibility on Kurt's part is starting his vocal in a lower register and then bringing it to a scream in the 3rd and subsequent verses... The impact is huge. It's a simple trick yet the execution is brilliant and makes the hair stand.. Utterly genius.
