just when I think I've got it made
and fate appears around the corner
my friends arrive and form a line
they all compete to fuck me over

please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know

just when I think I'll make the grade
and all my darkest days are over
it's always then to my dismay
my friends arrive and it's all over

please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know
please save me from myself and rescue me from everyone I know

don't forget
that I need you around
like I need another
cigarette
I need you
like a hole in the head
like I need another
cigarette

cigarette
cig-cigarette

there I go
fall away from me
no one knows
drifting over me
here I go
drift away with the smoke
