Kurt really hated this song, which is probably why it wasn't released. It seems that there have been some confusion between this song and Token Eastern Song. In a letter to Dale Crover, published in Kurt Cobain's Journals, Kurt elaborates on why he hates 'If You Must': “The first song on the demo is no longer played it is sickening and dumb. Destroy it it is evil. In the likes of Whitesnake and bon jovi.“ from the album “Outcesticide: In Memory of Kurt Cobain“ Lyrics I can read, I can write I can breed, proven plight Nurse my greed, crease infold Is it me, or my ego? Write some words, make them rhyme Thesis or storyline Set the mood, something new Is it me, or my attitude? If you want to put off an image The extremes, the extremes Act it out, practicing, Perfecting, pressuring On to me, on to me, on to me I will wait in a phyllum To explain your asylum I am tired analyzing We've compared all our sizings you must I speak to hear my voice I can read, I can write I can breed, proven plight Nurse my greed, crease infold Is it me, or my ego? Write some words, make them rhyme Thesis or storyline Set the mood, something new Is it me, or my attitude? If you want to put off an image The extremes, the extremes Act it out, practicing, Perfecting, pressuring On to me, on to me, on to me On to me, on to me, on to me, on to me
