lyrics

If I die when I am 33
I'll wish I had smoked like a chimney
All the cigarettes will laugh at my fear
What is cancer when death wants you near?

So let's smoke all the bad dreams away
You might cough at first, that's okay
Hold my hand, I'm blowing away
Sing like you'll be dead one of these days

If I die when I am 32
I'll wish I'd kissed you you and you
I'll have all the time to be alone
When there's dirt and grass over my bones

So let's kiss til my soul burns away
We won't last but let's kiss anyway
Hold my hand I'm slipping away
Sing like you'll be dead one of these days
