What did Nirvana "eat?"

[Earl Snake-Hips Tucker]

There is a line in some Nirvana song that goes something like "I wish I could eat your cancer. . . ."

Is that the line? If not, I'm worried, because that's also what Beavis and Butthead thought it said.

[Coldfire]

Rest assured, B&B are right. It's in a song called Heart-shaped Box, if I recall correctly.

'... when you turn black.'

It's from the song 'Heart Shaped Box' on the _In Utero_ CD. Yes, Kurt does say 'cancer'.

You are thinking of Heart Shaped Box, and yeah, I think that is the lyrics, or at least this is what I sing when I sing along to my CD:

I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks.

I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap.

I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black.

Could it be "Heart Shaped Box" ?
