lyrics
Warm coat pocket in the cold uptown
And I dig deep down
But my cigarettes are in
The little red box on a dresser in my room
As I spit into the gloom
Of a long afternoon
And this realization sparks a heart palpitation
With increased perspiration
Man, I hope it's not the big one
Sweating in the cold, and I though I was stronger
But I can't go on much longer
And I really need a cigarette I really need a cigarette
I'm jonesing.
I've got people to see
I've got battles to fight
I haven't had a cigarette
Since 10 last night
If I don't get one soon - this afternoon
I'll never get through it
It's a good way to quit
But a bad day to do it.
Warm coat pocket in the cold uptown
And I dig deep down
But my cigarettes are in
The little red box on a dresser in my room
As I spit into the gloom
Of a long afternoon
And this realization sparks a heart palpitation
With increased perspiration
Man, I hope it's not the big one
You're all a bunch of fuckers
And you're all a bunch of sheep
And you're all a load of shit
And I really need a cigarette I really need a cigarette
I'm jonesing.
I've got people to see
I've got battles to fight
I haven't had a cigarette
Since 10 last night
If I don't get one soon - this afternoon
I'll never get through it
It's a good way to quit
But a bad day to do it.
And I dig deep down
But my cigarettes are in
The little red box on a dresser in my room
As I spit into the gloom
Of a long afternoon
And this realization sparks a heart palpitation
With increased perspiration
Man, I hope it's not the big one
Sweating in the cold, and I though I was stronger
But I can't go on much longer
And I really need a cigarette I really need a cigarette
I'm jonesing.
I've got people to see
I've got battles to fight
I haven't had a cigarette
Since 10 last night
If I don't get one soon - this afternoon
I'll never get through it
It's a good way to quit
But a bad day to do it.
Warm coat pocket in the cold uptown
And I dig deep down
But my cigarettes are in
The little red box on a dresser in my room
As I spit into the gloom
Of a long afternoon
And this realization sparks a heart palpitation
With increased perspiration
Man, I hope it's not the big one
You're all a bunch of fuckers
And you're all a bunch of sheep
And you're all a load of shit
And I really need a cigarette I really need a cigarette
I'm jonesing.
I've got people to see
I've got battles to fight
I haven't had a cigarette
Since 10 last night
If I don't get one soon - this afternoon
I'll never get through it
It's a good way to quit
But a bad day to do it.
