| [00:22.05] |
All the side effects were never mentioned to me |
| [00:27.09] |
I am innocent of uncontrolled abuse |
| [00:31.95] |
No one ever told me cigarettes could kill me |
| [00:37.05] |
Now I'm used to them |
| [00:38.76] |
I never saw the writings and the warnings |
| [00:42.27] |
On the packages and posters of my role-up smokes |
| [00:52.32] |
Tell me that's a hoax |
| [01:02.01] |
Got the freakin' idea I could be like James Dean |
| [01:07.71] |
15 years old with my foot against the wall |
| [01:11.94] |
Getting smoke into my eyes not that I'd show you, |
| [01:17.31] |
Being cool and man I never saw |
| [01:19.86] |
The writings and the warnings |
| [01:22.20] |
On the packages and posters of my role-up smokes |
| [01:27.24] |
Tell me that's a hoax |
| [01:30.21] |
The pores of plague that tease the cow, |
| [01:32.52] |
The cross-eyed steak I'm eating now |
| [01:34.83] |
Can overload and in time explode |
| [01:40.53] |
Pretty done for, heaven knows, the city's like a snake |
| [01:45.36] |
All wrapped up and tangled in. Reality's a fake |
| [01:50.01] |
The flashy coloured neon signs are screaming 'Ain't it great! |
| [01:54.42] |
Come dance with us, take your chance with us' |
| [01:57.51] |
We're left for dead. Without beliefs we're dead |
| [02:08.73] |
We're scared, but won't admit to it, I bet |
| [02:18.84] |
So we cease to care instead |
| [02:21.33] |
Now I'm stuck between the alcohol and wisdom |
| [02:36.96] |
Now I'm stuck between a smoke and city air |
| [02:42.21] |
Almost used to all the crappy things we feed on |
| [02:47.13] |
Almost belly round and unaware |
| [02:49.68] |
Chorus |
