Nirvana - Pay to Play Meaning

Pay to Play Lyrics
Walk around, follow you -- I don't know why I
Throw it out, keep it in -- I don't know why I
Have to have poison skin -- I don't know why I
Pay
Pay to play
Walk an inch, take a mile -- I don't...

When you play shows sometimes you have to pay to play meaning ypu have to pay money to keep a time slot at a gig or pay to be on the bill, most cases these shows are at popular clubs where there will be maximum exposure for your band if you pay to play. The title was changed to stay away rerecorded and released on Nevermind.
