Thirteen - Nicotine

Fifty million holes and the rain is getting in
Baby let it go there's more to life than meets the skin
You're my nicotine you're my favourite sound
You're the color that I like to wrap myself around

WE'RE ALL NUMBERS IN THE NUMBERS GAME
GIVE ME A LONG STEM ROSE TO COVER UP THE PAIN
AND IF YOU DON'T WIN NOW YOU MIGHT WIN LATER ON
SO DON'T BOTHER GIVING IN BEFORE YOU'RE ACTUALLY GONE

Hero's on the heroine He's flying over Spain
Supermodel baby's on the rampage all in stains
O l love to touch your mind when I sit in your car
Coca Cola baby's signing autographs on mars

WE'RE ALL NUMBERS IN THE NUMBERS GAME
GIVE ME A LONG STEM ROSE TO COVER UP THE PAIN
AND IF YOU DON'T WIN NOW YOU MIGHT WIN LATER ON
SO DON'T BOTHER GIVING IN BEFORE YOU'RE ACTUALLY GONE

DON'T SAY BIGGER AND DON'T SAY MORE
TAKE YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER
UNLESS YOU WANNA START A WAR
DON'T SET OFF THE MOTION SENSORS
THEY'LL BE KICKING IN THE DOOR
SHOVE IT DOWN THE DRAIN BEFORE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT

Why'd you want to get out outta the spin
Giving up hope like smoking addiction
You keep trying to meditate with those fake gurus
Who can't velcro their shoes tied up in knots
Cause they forgot what it's about
Chrome stars with digital heroin scars
I got my own dreams my own messed up self esteem
My own scheme
Life is the teacher everybody is a preacher
I can't talk now after the tone leave me a message

They're ticker taping outside in hundred dollar bills
Show me a day where nobody's getting killed
Your my nicotine babies outta jail
Your the razor feeling that I get when I inhale

WE'RE ALL NUMBERS IN THE NUMBERS GAME
GIVE ME A LONG STEM ROSE TO COVER UP THE PAIN
AND IF YOU DON'T WIN NOW YOU MIGHT WIN LATER ON
SO DON'T BOTHER GIVING IN BEFORE YOU'RE ACTUALLY GONE

DON'T SAY BIGGER AND DON'T SAY MORE
TAKE YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER
UNLESS YOU WANNA START A WAR
DON'T SET OFF THE MOTION SENSORS
THEY'LL BE KICKING IN THE DOOR
SHOVE IT DOWN THE DRAIN BEFORE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
SHOVE IT DOWN THE DRAIN BEFORE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
SHOVE IT DOWN THE DRAIN BEFORE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
SHOVE IT DOWN THE DRAIN BEFORE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT
