Coffee & Cigarettes

from Under City Lights by John Nels

/

lyrics

Coffee and cigarettes start off my day
It's a means to an end from a selfish way
Ironed shirts and pants make a man feel proud
Until the lack of a bed cuts smile down to a frown
Cause I've garnered no success, A path that feels disappointed
And anointed- by

Foolish ways
Foolish ways
If you could please- interject
Please intercept me
If you could please- interject
Please intercept my foolish ways

The non-nicotine and caffeine pawn off the rest
Of the bad influences- high-strung and high-test
I'm waiting for the man, his tune carries loud
I'll take a shot in the head, or a stab in the brow
I've garnered no success, A path that feels disappointed
And anointed- by

Foolish ways
Foolish ways
If you could please- interject
Please intercept me
If you could please- interject
Please intercept my foolish ways
