Lyrics

The Hymn For The Cigarettes

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

No one called, no one wrote

No one even phoned

So no one knew that I was with her on my own

She smoked in my bed 'cause she thought it would annoy me

But I love to see the girls smoke in my bed

I love to see the girls smoke in my bed

I love to see the girls smoke in my bed

I love to see the girls smoke

Love to see the girls smoke!

How can she love me?

If she doesn't even love the cinema

That I love?

What does she feel?

If she doesn't have the feeling that

I have in my fingers?

This joy I have

Could lift this ceiling from its rafters

But I'm not laughing

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love

Lucky Strikes remind me

Of my friends out on the west coast

Camel Lights remind me

Of my ex-girlfriend at Chistmas time

And Malboro Reds remind me

Of giving up in Berlin

But B&H remind me of not giving up but giving in

B&H remind me of not giving up but giving in

B&H remind me of not giving up but giving in

B&H remind me

B&H remind me!

How can she love me?

If she doesn't even love the cinema

That I love?

What does she feel?

If she doesn't have the feeling that

I have in my fingers?

This joy I have

Could lift this ceiling from its rafters

But I'm not laughing

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love

I don' t want to stay in love, love

I don' t want to stay in love

I don' t want to stay in love, love

I don' t want to stay in love

How can she love me?

If she doesn't even love the cinema

That I love?

What does she feel?

If she doesn't have the feeling that

I have in my fingers?

This joy I have

Could lift this ceiling from its rafters

But I'm not laughing

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love

We feel nothing

So we search for nothing

So we achieve nothing, love
