my little cigarette

don't you be sad little little cigarette

i can shield from the cold snowy rain falling on your face

i'll keep you safe little little cigarette

from that rude gust of wind rudely biting your fingers

i'll keep you warm little little cigarette

i'll wrap you up in scarves and warm downy jackets

i'll nurture you my little cigarette

your toxic love fills every corner of my lungs

i'll be there for you ma petite cigarette

i love to get lost in your tiny ember glow

don't you be sad

don't you be sad

little little cigarette

i'll keep you safe til the very end

safe til there's nothing left to keep safe
