i dont see how anyone would think its about kurt cobain just because it refrences wearing plaid and bleached blonde hair :-\ seems like its about a girl that he saw as wonderful at first but that faded as time went by. 1

This song is about Kurt Cobain. When Everclear was first showing up, there was a lot of talk about Art being the "new Kurt Cobain." The music had a similar grungy sound. Art wasn't happy about this, because he felt that Nirvana was sell-outs. Also, I'm sure Art had some issues with Kurt's drug use, considering Art's history. As for the song itself, it shows in most of the lines: "I remember when you seemed real shiny with the sweat of your voice Shaky hands super loud and teenage mouth" "The belly fire pulls the spirit from the corporate whore I'm embarrassed by the plaid you wear If I were you I'd hide behind that stupid bleach blonde hair" These parts describe Kurt. He had the blonde hair, he yelled, he was young, and he wore the definitive grunge clothing: plaid shirt, tied around the waist. "Now I've got no place to go, I've got no place to go I've got no one, nowhere, no one" These lines are about how this was how Art was always described, and how it seemed like that was all he ever heard. Anyone who plays guitar probably loves this song, because it's so much fun to play.

He shacked up with a girl who was all sparkle and no substance. At first, she was exciting and novel, but beneath all that she's an immature, annoying person. She didn't change, but his estimation of her did.
