Nicotine Stain (Pathway demo) Songtext
von Siouxsie and the Banshees

It′s just a habit when I reach to the packet
For my last cigarette, until the day breaks
Then my hand shakes
But, but, but, but, but, but
It's just driving me insane
When the smoke gets in my brain I can′t resist it

Wallow in that ash bath
Soaking up the fumes
And see the nicotine stain
Start to spread

I'm so congested 'cos north, south, east and west
Catarrh rests on my chest, congealed and twisted
Cough up and shift it
But I can feel my lungs collapse
Sinking deep into my lap
I′m so useless


Wallow in that ash bath
Soaking up the fumes
And see the nicotine stain
Start to spread

I′m so useful if you don't want to fight
Just give your foe a fright
Say you′ll drop me on every country
See, see, see, see
All will be stone dead
When the nicotine stain spreads
Just light me

Wallow in that ash bath
Soaking up the fumes
And see the nicotine stain
Start to spread

It's in my hand
It′s in my hand
N-n-nicotine spread
Nicotine stain
