Pitiful Rattle

I'm not responsible for this.
The credits roll without my name.
And you need a cigarette just to remember.
This nicotine is all you get for now.
And did you wonder why or how?
And did you offer advice on how it goes?

And who's responsible for me?
It's all a matter of degrees in here.
And all you'll get is when I inhale, even though it sounds so pathetic to you...
And even though you shake your pitiful rattle around I guess we'll all just wait and see.

And who's responsible for you?
Cuz salt it sinks but sugar floats on through.
And I need a cigarette just to remember.
This smokey world is all you get from me.
And all you'll ever see is when I inhale, even though it sounds so pathetic to you...
And even though you shake your pitiful rattle around I guess we'll all just wait and see.

I'm cruising the neighborhood, how about you?
It's not quite a trading card, but how about you?

Cuz all you'll ever see is me inhaling, even though it sounds so pathetic to you...
And even though you shake your pitiful rattle around I guess we'll all just wait and see.

I know that it's down to me.
And I know that I'm to blame.
