lyrics

She went down to the corner store/ And
bought a pack of filter kings / Don't you
know tomorrow she'll be back for more /
Cause she really loves to smoke those
things / And every time that she inhales / A
cloud of that cigarette smoke / She's just
one step closer to the man in black / And
sixty cents closer to broke

And she's working on / Lung cancer,
emphysema, a cardiac arrest / And she'll
probably have a stroke when see sees /
The x-rays of her chest

When she had her first cigarette / A puff or
two was all she could take / Now if she doesn't
have one in her hand all the time /
You'll notice it begin to shake / And even
though she's nonchalant / And acts as if
her habit's a joke / I bet she won't do too
much laughing / When her life goes up in
smoke

She's been smoking that C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E
that cigarette's got her on her knees / C-I-
G-A-R-E-T-T-E / That darn tobacco won't
set her free / Suck baby suck / Suck on that
cigarette / Go on and light up that fag and
take a drag / It's bound to snuff you yet

(guitar break)

She went down to the corner store/ And
bought a pack of filter kings / Don't you
know tomorrow she'll be back for more /
Cause she really loves to smoke those
things / And every time that she inhales / A
cloud of that cigarette smoke / She's just
one step closer to the man in black / And
sixty cents closer to broke
