[Dan Bull] |
|
I'm back in this habit |
|
The tobacconist grabbing a packet of fags |
|
And passing it back as I hand him the cash |
|
The transaction is tragic |
|
A moment of magic, as I open the packet |
|
And go for the wrapping, in only a moment I'll have this fag lit |
|
The sad fact is I'm an addict, I need a hit |
|
Of nicotine just to breathe and it's obscene |
|
Just between us as a kid I disbelieved a brittle leaf |
|
Mixed with heat could leave you feelin' incomplete without it |
|
So blow the smoke out quick, you'll feel terrible |
|
However you will have achieved something incredible |
|
[Chorus] |
|
This is my last cigarette |
|
I've done enough that I have to regret |
|
This is my last cigarette |
|
I've done enough that I have to regret |
|
[Dan Bull] |
|
Bringin' a whole different sting |
|
To the thing you hold in your fingers |
|
They're stained since you imitated |
|
The behavior of your favorite singer |
|
I know you stroll to the cinema |
|
And your role model's holding a Marlboro |
|
The image is vivid and so you're sold the whole |
|
Till your soul is a prisoner moulded in miniature rolled in a Rizzla |
|
Held in a wrestling hold 'til the finisher |
|
You're choked out, so blow the smoke out |
|
No doubt : self-control's what's killing you |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Dan Bull] |
|
This is my last cigarette, I've done enough I have to regret |
|
Without gasping for breath, asking for death |
|
In return for the active effects |
|
As many a heroin addict has said |
|
It's addictive as smack, you'd be daft to inject |
|
Skip the needle and the needle skips |
|
As I tap my fag, let the ash hit the deck |
|
Stood on the back step in the rain |
|
And never complain 'til my fag's wet |
|
Splashed out, cashing the cheque |
|
Ash, ground; ground, ash; have you met ? |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Dan Bull] |
|
I stub the nub, enough's enough, I'm good |
|
I would gladly have another fag, see but the fact is I'm done |
|
It's off my chest, and I'm impressed |
|
With my willpower, nothing less |
|
Face my fate at 88 miles an hour, time travelling |
|
As my life expectancy expands and I feel like a younger man |
|
You need to fight the hunger, Dan |
|
You're done, you can (you can) you can |
|
I can (you can) I am |
|
[Chorus] |
