lyrics

let me be your cigarette
take me outside and set me alight
you can suck all the life out of me if you like
I won't put up a fight
then once you're done grind me into the ground
give it some welly, give it some clout
yes, you can put me down and put me out
just hope it doesn't put you out

let me be your racehorse
keep me well watered and fed
run me ragged 'til I fail, fall and break a leg
then shoot me in the back of the head
don't worry for a second 'bout my upkeep
I was never one to be kept
you can put me down and put me out
just hope you're not left feeling bereft

'cause I wouldn't want to
do that to you
for you are a beautiful woman
and beautiful women are like buses
I'd give good money
just to be hit by either one of them

so let me be your long-lost child
your illegitimate prodigal son
make up for years of neglect and estrangement
with some unholy self-serving reunion
you can point out all of your worst flaws
and tell me I remind you of you
you can put me down and put me out
if that's what you want to do
