deep space, a lonely place
if only i could replace
this stupid little human race
then we could spare ourselves this mess

it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
o poor cigarettes how i still want you
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true

oh your sad face
alas your grimace
if only we could draw this ace
then we could spare ourselves this mess

it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
o poor cigarettes how i still want you
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true

and i'm just a toad but i still want to go
i don't have my legs yet i still want to go
i'm terribly sick but i still want to go
i still have a tail but i still want to go
and i'm just a road but i still want to go
i'm cracked and have holes but i still want to go


it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
o poor cigarettes how i still want you
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true

it's terrible now and it's terrible too
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
o poor cigarettes how i still want you
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
it's terribly funny cuz it's terribly true
it's terribly funny cuz it's terrible
