"Serve the Servants" is a song by the American rock band Nirvana, written by vocalist and guitarist, Kurt Cobain. It is the first track on their third and final studio album In Utero, released in September 1993.

The song has frequently been cited for its autobiographical lyrics, which address the band's fame following the release of their 1991 album, Nevermind, the divorce of Cobain's parents, and perceived media attacks against Cobain's wife, American rock musician, Courtney Love.
