I could use another cigarette
My mind is skipping like a broken cassette
I normally don't think this way
You know, thinking long about my day

Is it because i'm stuck in this cubicle?
Dreaming of my life as a musical
Or is this a joke, almost like a sign
Telling me to venture past the state line

See, I've never been adventurous
Never really done anything dangerous
Is this really going to be my life?
What if I never become a wife?

Maybe it's time for me to run
Actually do something really fun
Travel to the seven wonders of the world!
I wonder if then, my life will unfurl

I'll leave tomorrow
and stop wallowing in sorrow
Oh wait, tomorrow doesn't work
I still have my job as a clerk

Next month then, it is set
I'll start small, I'll get a pet
But that's going to be some bad debt
Man, I need another cigarette.
