Cigarette Lyrics by Whitey

Great Shakes

2012

[Verse 1]
Just when I think I've got it made
And Fate appears around the corner
My friends arrive and form a line
They all compete to fuck me over

[Bridge]
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know

Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know

[Verse 2]
Just when I think I'll make the grade
And all my darkest days are over
It's always then to my dismay
My friends arrive- and it's all over

[Bridge]
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know

Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know
Please save me from myself...

[Chorus]
Don't forget
That I need you around
Like I need another
Cigarette

I need you
Like a hole in the head
Like I need another
Cigarette, cigarette, cig-cigarette

[Verse 3]
Just when I think I've got it made
And Fate appears around the corner
My friends arrive and form a line
They all compete to fuck me over

[Bridge]
Please save me from myself
And rescue me from everyone I know
Please save me from myself...

[Chorus]
Don't forget
That I need you around
Like I need another
Cigarette

I need you
Like a hole in the head
Like I need another
Cigarette

Don't forget
That I need you around
Like I need another
Cigarette

I need you
Like a hole in the head
Like I need another
Cigarette, cigarette, cig-cigarette

[Outro]
Here I go
Far away from
The long long lows
Drifting overhead
Here I go
Drift away with the smoke
