lyrics:
she should have stayed away from friends
she should have had more time to spend
she should have died when she was born
she should have worn the crown of thorns
she should have been a son
she should have been a son
she should have been a son
she should have been a son
she should have stood out in the crowd
she should have made her mother proud
she should have fallen on her stance
she should have had another chance
she should have been a son
she should have been a son
she should have been a son
she should have been a son

[@ВиталийКожемякин-п8н]

I just went to KZbin and immediately the premiere, thanks girls!

[@mercedesarn-horn8095]

thanks for watching :)

[@theDragoon007yaboiCJ]

lol was just looking for this song and I found you girls days after the upload. You should cover more nirvana specially these punkish more underground songs that are less popular

[@rgoob4045]

this song was like an anthem for my life in the 90's and I was the same age as Kurt, late bloomer obvs... Great to hear it again now, thanks for covering!

[@bradkohl99]

This was fun and well executed.

[@kevinbritt2321]

💯 Lyrically on point, sweet vocals, exciting drums and guitar, and 90's throwback video (NIN, Garbage, etc). Such a refreshing version of this song. Love it sung from a female perspective. Rock on Softcult!

[@mercedesarn-horn8095]

Thank you so much for listening 🖤🤍🤘🏼

[@nobetter7747]

you gals havent let me down yet ! keep it up!

[@MINERVAtheDREAMEATER]

Kurt would be proud 🖤

[@BassOutcast]

I love how you guys added your own flavor to the mix. The little solo was a nice touch, great job!

[@mercedesarn-horn8095]

Thank you 🖤🤍

[@al201103]

Was never a Nirvana fan. Yet somehow this song that I've never heard the original of takes me back to my college years (89-92). Perfect Indie/Rock/Pop. Like, perfect.

[@mrbobawesome]

Didn't see this one coming. Love it! You did a great job of putting your own spin on it while keeping it true to the original. That's a fine line to walk, but you mastered it here.

[@hollywoodvampire8769]
