Lyrics

I am 19 and I’m on my mom’s roof
It’s Arizona hot I’m cold and aloof
It’s a blue morning the music the moon
You’ll never love or be loved like I love you
I’ve yet to hear of jazz or soulful remedies
Just the distant dreams of sad melodies
Lonely tune a melancholy lullaby
My sleepy sister sings a dreadful goodbye
I want to know what I’ve been keeping inside
I want to feel the music between my thighs
You know there’s someone there when they’re chasing you
You know you’re someone but can’t quite find out who
Lord on high
Where am I going?
Praying hard
See him showing
Who I’ll be
I am 20 and I’m packing my things
I live in Chicago and it lives in me
I’m in love with all its music and its snow
I’m also in love with a girl and her poems
I hate to leave but I am chasing success
I got a red eye O’Hare to LAX
I kiss my love goodbye and it kisses back
My film noir slowly fades to black
Lord on high
Where am I going?
Praying hard
See him showing
Who I’ll be
The most famous man in the world
One photo eyes like pearls
Drakkar James Bond white skin
Ray ban bleach blonde drug binge
And he’s driving his jeep
Not fast enough speed
Does his mind race like mine
Snapped the photo in time
I am 21 and having some fun
Sitting in my jeep in California
I smoke a cigarette I’ve never had one
I suspect it’s the first but not last one
A bombshell blonde girl sits on her balcony
A trumpet player with no teeth next to me
A tatt’ed woman with a beehive by trees
We all smoke cigarettes till the next reprise
Cigarette
Where am I going?
Watch the smoke
See it showing
Cigarette
Something’s growing
There’s a feel
But there’s no knowing
Who I’ll be
Cigarette
Cigarette
