lyrics

she sat next to me in the waiting room
i had the common cold she had a stomach flu
i was reading time when she turned my way
and she said that my breath smelled like an ashtray

i need a cigarette and a blanket

she's like a monster
she wanted me to quit like that
i really want her

and then she handed me her hanky and a nicotine patch
(she's so in particular)

i was reading time when she started to flirt
she grabbed the pack from the front pocket of my shirt

and i said that it was more than just a habit

chorus!

she wanted me she wanted me dead

chorus!

and now i'm alone
my nicotine patch
was no match
for the common cold.
