COFFEE AND CIGARETTES

I gave up coffee and cigarettes 

I hate to say it hasn’t helped me yet 

I thought my problems would just dissipate 

And all my pain would be in yesterday

I thought that if I didn’t go and play 

The sadness would get bored and go away 

I thought that if I didn’t go astray 

That all my pain would be in yesterday 

I sold my guitar and my piano
I thought that it was these that kept me low
I thought if only I could try and change
That all my pain would be in yesterday 

But I finally know what to do
I must quit, I must quit
