Cigarette Lyrics

You, you gotta be the one, who's in on the action
I'm wondering when we're leaving,
You gotta meet everyone before it's all over
Why? They're gonna be here next weekend
And you gotta be something else
cuz we all got older
You, you're gonna be someone
You make me wanna smoke a cigarette
You make me wanna be someone else
You make me wanna be somebody you would leave
And I could forget
You gotta be the one to get a reaction
I don't want anyone to see me
And you gotta be something else
cuz we all got older
and you, you're gonna be someone
You make me wanna smoke a cigarette
You make me wanna be someone else
You make me wanna be somebody you would leave
and I could forget
You make me wanna smoke a cigarette
You make me wanna be someone else
You make me wanna be somebody you would leave
and I could forget
I'll stay
You go
I'm fine
with or without you
[Repeat]

You make me wanna smoke a cigarette
You make me wanna be someone else
You make me wanna be somebody you would leave
and I could forget
You make me wanna smoke a cigarette
You make me wanna be someone else
You make me wanna be somebody you would leave
and I could forget

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

i can't believe no one has commented this song yet. it's very catchy with the 'you make me wanna smoke a cigarette'

anyway, i could be totally wrong about this but i think it's about this guy whos dating this girl. popular, nosy girl who needs to know everything and everyone. and he's getting aggrevated because she's so perfect and acts better than everyone else and he sees it as being immature. but, although she has all these flaws, he can't forget her, and she doesn't want to leave him either.
