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

She's been 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 (shake baby)

Even though she's nonchalant
And acts as if her habit's a joke (ah, hahaha)
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

Alright, suck, baby, suck
Suck on that cigarette
Go on and light up that stuff and take a puff
It's bound to snuff you yet

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

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

Now, she’s been smoking that C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E
That cigarette just won’t let her be
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
C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E
