The Bible
cigarette girls
Select language to translate this lyric
One too many dockside kisses
Too few ships coming in
Make a threat into a promise
Make her start when you begin
And how you love to watch them burn
Cigarette girls
Forgotten faces lipstick traces
Who needs friends when you've got eyes
Broken homes from crooked houses
Crocodile tears and alligator smiles
And how you love to watch them burn
Cigarette girls
I've been watching i've been seeing how it's done
It's an ugly ugly world where everybody loves a cigarette girl
It breaks my heart to hear them talking
They say i
hope
i
live
before
i
get
old
All that sadness all of it man-made
All that glitter that isn't gold
And how you love to watch them burn
Cigarette girls...
