[Verse 1]
When I'm blowing smoke
She'll be laughing at my jokes
She could always get the joke
I'll tell the world I love her
[Chorus 1]
When I lose my place
Wandering in the human waste

[Chorus 2]
And our children smile
At their father-child
And the dreamy days roll by
They bring me home again
To my lover and my friend
[Outro]
When I'm blowing smoke
When I'm blowing smoke
When I'm blowing smoke
When I'm blowing smoke
