In a black and far off corner of my mind
There`s a box of something I can`t quite define
It houses circus freaks, temptation and bad trips
In an isolated corner of the box
There`s a trap door covered up with dirt and rocks
It opens to the stairs that lead down to the crypt
Do you know where you`re going when you`ve taken your last step
Do you know what you get?
Cigarette
On a dark and lonely road in my hometown
Stands a house that long ago should`ve been torn down
It reeks of love gone sour, suspicion and bad debt
On a weather beaten transom in the house
Walks a friend of mine that I call the old king mouse
He dances in the moonlight and sleeps out on the steps
Do you know where you`re going when you`ve taken your last breath?
Do you know what you get?
Do you know where you`re going when they`ve paid their last regrets?
Do you know what you get?
Cigarette
In a black and far off corner of my mind
There`s a box of something I can`t quite define
It houses circus freaks, temptation and the Fayette County Fair
And it reeks of love gone sour, suspicion and big hair
Do you know where you`re going when you`ve taken your last breath?
Do you know what you get?
Do you know where you`re going when the devil starts to sweat?
Do you know what you get?
A cigarette
