Lyrics
I'm always dreaming of a better world. One with me and a beautiful girl, but there goes my career. I'm always hoping that I'll find that place, but up til' then I guess I'll stay right here. I'm always on my way to somewhere else. Metaphorically to find myself, but what if I get lost? I'm always looking for a better deal. I'm always thinking that it's my last meal, but how much will it cost? And I guess it's all coming down to me. Someone said the odds are one in three, that I will ever find my destiny. It's anybody's guess; cause its all nightmares and cigarettes to me. I'm always waiting for a light to change. I always thought that it's kind of strange, to be in a hurry when you've got no place to go. I'm always sharing secrets with a grin. I'm always taking living on the chin, but that's the only way I know. And I guess it's all coming down to thee. Exactly what you'd hope I plan to see, and if confronted with the Deity then I'll confess, that it's all nightmares and cigarettes to me. What I will expect, has the opposite effect. Wouldn't you agree? I'm always waiting for the bad news. In every race I expect to lose, so and how about tonight? I'm always hoping for a good time, but when I have it, why am I surprised? Oh, where did I go right? So I guess I'll have to wait and see. Taking all the evidence for free. My life has just been narrowed down to be quite a mess, cause its all nightmares and cigarettes to me. Cigarettes, cute pets, risky bets, and television sets. Big debts, and fourteen frets. Idle threats, and much regret, well… Sunsets, and bachelorettes who cares? They're all nightmares to me.
