It was hard enough just to get up
But it was slow going back down
Aw, but the news, you know, it travels quickly
He was the laughing stock of the whole town
He was the laughing stock of the whole town
Aw, but there's a time and place for that

Some smoke: to take the edge off
Some smoke cigarettes just to get off
Some smoke cigarettes for fun
And when in a rush, hey, well, they run
Yeah but the black tar weighs them down
Yeah but the black tar weighs them down
He was the laughing stock of the whole town
He was the laughing stock of the whole town
