Cigarette Girls

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...
