Discover the story of the song > Sappy – Early Demo – Kurt Cobain

The song is about a person who believes that if he and his romantic partner do what they are told and obey, they will be happy. He compares his partner to a creature in a jar that he keeps, giving them only enough air to breathe. He also believes that if he saves someone, it will make him and his partner happy. The chorus repeats the phrase "you're in a laundry room" several times, which may suggest a feeling of confinement and being stuck in a repetitive cycle.
