Nirvana - Molly's Lips

Molly’s Lips was written by the Scottish band The Vaselines, The song is about the actress Molly Weir. In the TV show Rentaghost she played the character Hazel McWitch typically appeared in whiteface with emphatic red lips.
I like the “particular toot” in the Vaselines version. The Nirvana version first appeared on the spilt-single withe the band The Fluid on Sub Pop.
