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 poured my booze all down the kitchen drain
and watched my bad habits get flushed away
i thought that that would keep my head on straight
and all my pain would be in yesterday

but it’s true
i’m still blue
but I finally know what to do
i must quit, i must quit, you
