i dont think "bettin on the bull in heather" has anything to do with the rest of the song.
i used to always question this sorta thing with alot of nirvana lyrics and shit. but i dont so much anymore.

the verses remind me of bondage or submissive sex. i dont know. im probably wrong

bull in the heather
betting on the bull in the heather

hmmm, also, isn't it one of the songs where Steve uses a maracas (spelling???) in lieu of a drumstick? I think he does it in the video, but I haven't seen it for a loooong time.

It's about sex (with the horse thrown in for good measure) as a double entendre of polymorphic psychosexuality, but it's more than just about the sex act; like all of Thurston's (?) lyrics on the subject of love, sex is transformed into godhead, the unification of the opposites, with one's true love, thus hearkening towards the meaning of existence itself.

It's about picking the right true love & then sticking with the evol four leaf clover love through honesty & uninhibited communication.

the bull in the heather is a horse, and she's talking about betting on it. i think it's drugs.
