the fiery furnaces – smelling cigarettes lyrics
very much vodka and too much tequila: those are the ways i learned to deal. across against the light and the sleet scalds my sight, stunned i stayed put and a billboard truck runs over my foot. so things are really hopping; and my unemployment’s stopping; and my kitty cat’s copping; and i need to forget. so i go to the window and smell a cigarette.
now i’m in the clutches of my crutches: i’m laid up, and i sip from my cup, and i look outside. and i see christopher hyde-who just got divorced, and there’s a restraining order enforced-going in his ex-wife’s garage. i’m just drunk enough to open the window, yell out gruff:
“don’t you key that brand-new camry.†and he gave me the cursor, “d-mn,†returning to the spot he was, “mind your own business you!†and i wag my finger, “you’re not doing what you’re supposed to do.â€
and then he’s coming toward me, and i took a swig of my tequila ‘cause it made me feel a little nervous as he started across against the light: but he didn’t look to his right as he didn’t stay put. and a billboard truck came and ran over his foot.
and the cops responding called out to me, “hey is this your cat?†“yeah, but sometimes it forgets. ah, wait a minute. i gonna come out there and smell a couple a cigarettes.â€
don’t you hurry-worry with me…
