Cheroot Lyrics
Cheroot, who loved you
Who sucked you and left you
Every star is burned out
Every room is blackened
Cheroot
Who waved you with a flourish
In the heat of some propitious moment
Held you in their greasy hand
Stubbed you out on the edge of a can
Cheroot
Here you are at the peak of your powers
The tree of age and its creaky bowers
Who held you like a lover
Then left you for another
When you fell fragile and cold
Drowned forever in a toilet bowl
Cheroot
Happiness is fleeting my friend
You've got the half-life
Of a cesium atom to spend
Painted lips and starry night
Set alight
Seduced by the promise
Of that perfect kiss
You make nothing happen
It just happens to you
I know the feeling
My life's like that too
Cheroot.
Who sucked you and left you
Every star is burned out
Every room is blackened
Cheroot
In the heat of some propitious moment
Held you in their greasy hand
Stubbed you out on the edge of a can
Cheroot
The tree of age and its creaky bowers
Then left you for another
When you fell fragile and cold
Drowned forever in a toilet bowl
Cheroot
You've got the half-life
Of a cesium atom to spend
Set alight
Seduced by the promise
Of that perfect kiss
You make nothing happen
It just happens to you
I know the feeling
My life's like that too
Cheroot.
