Cigarette Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am nineteen and I'm on my mom's roof
It's Arizona how I'm cold and aloof
It's a blue morning, the music, the moon
You'll never love or be loved like I love you

I've yet to hear of jazz or soulful remedies
Just the distant dreams of sad melodies
Lonely tune, a melancholy lullaby
My sleepy sister sings a dreadful goodbye

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I want to know what I've been keeping inside
I want to feel the music between my thighs
You know there's someone there when they're chasin' you
You know you're someone but can't quite find out who

[Chorus]
Lord on high
Where am I going?
Praying hard
See him showing
Who I'll be

[Verse 2]
I am twenty and I'm packing my things
I live in Chicago and it lives in me
I'm in love with all its music and its snow
I'm also in love with a girl and her poems

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I hate to leave but I am chasing success
I caught a red-eye out to LAX
I kiss my love goodbye and he kisses back
My film-noir slowly fades to black

[Chorus]
Lord on high
Where am I going?
Praying hard
See him showing
Who I'll be

[Verse 3]
The most famous man in the world
One photo, eyes like pearls
Drakkar, James Bond, white skin
Ray-ban, bleach-blond, drug binge
And he's driving this Jeep not fast enough speed
Does his mind race like mine?
Snapped the photo in time

I am twenty-one and having some fun
Sitting in my Jeep in California
I smoke a cigarette
I've never had one
I suspect it's the first but not last one

[Pre-Chorus 3]
A bombshell blond girl sits on her balcony
A trumpet player with no teeth next to me
A tatted woman with a beehive by the trees
We all smoke cigarettes till the next reprise

[Chorus 2]
Cigarette
Where am I going?
Watch the smoke
See it showing

Cigarette
Somethings growing
There's a feel
But there's no knowing
Who I'll be

Cigarette
Cigarette
