Free Cigarettes

Life is an endless greenroom
Bunch of shit that I'm so sick of eating
If you can't draw a crowd
Then draw a dick on the wall
Pay someone in Nashville to write your songs
Pay a stranger to tune your guitar

The only royalty I know
Is the fraction of pennies that I am owed
Nothing comes easy
You learn it the hard way
You pay for it always

Heaven is a clean hotel room
There's warm cookies at the counter when you check in
There's always fresh clean bath towels
You never have to make your own bed
The cable TV and internet are free
Late checkout is available upon request

The only royalty I know
Is the fraction of pennies that I am owed
Nothing comes easy
You learn it the hard way
You pay for it always

The venue takes a cut of the door
But always remember you are the star
Nothing comes easy
You learn it the hard way
You pay for it always

Rosa Lee, Rosa Lee
I dropped a little acid and I listened to you sing
I was feeling low now I'm feeling differently
I am ashamed I could not see
The expansion right in front of me
I was not blind
I was just lazy
