Each of your cigarettes reminds you of the Nicorette patches your dad would wear
And with every other drag you will itch and attack your arm below your shoulder
He never wanted you to follow the routes he led, but I bet
He'd be proud of you nevertheless
You once said that you never really wanted the habit
But then again you once said you're probably not gonna quit it
Is that psychosomatic? See how he was combating
Addiction with intention to make sure you don't have it
Two more months, two more months again
On top of them, the 67th song I've ever written
Reckon when I started out, would that boy be proud of me now?
It's not a matter of skill, it's a matter of progress
It's if you're fulfilled, it's if you feel you've grown at all
You know full well that he'd say, it's all useful experience
And he'd be proud of you nevertheless
