Nearly Took Up Smoking
Edson

I would like to be
A lighthouse on your sea
But when we're on the phone
You always sink
Happy as can be
And then you talk to me
I drag you down
Before you even blink

Then it's: Over, over and out
And suddenly we talk about
The most stupid, shallow things
And all because of what my temper brings
I would like to do
Exciting things for you
I nearly took up smoking
Just to be

Elegantly rash
Vigorous and brash
Of course I ended up
With smoker's allergy

Then it's: Over, over and out
And suddenly we talk about
The most stupid, shallow things
And all because of what my temper brings

It's hard to be kind; it's all about pride
And I am only sweet when I drink
It's hard to be kind; it's all about pride
And I am only sweet when I drink

Lyrics by Edson

  Before I Was Smart   Birth! School! Dole! Angst!   Friends?   I Am The Ostrich   I Believe In A Thing Called Love   I Didn't Mean To Be Mean   I Never Finished A Test   I Wanna Be Alone   Save Me From Myself   September   Sunday, Lovely Sunday   The Luck I Never Had
