“Cigarette Daydreams” presents the pain of one’s search for identity through the musings of a parted lover.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1] Did you stand there all alone? Oh, I cannot explain what's going down I can see you standing next to me In and out somewhere else right now You sigh, look away I can see it clear as day Close your eyes, so afraid Hide behind that baby face
[Pre-Chorus] Do-do-do, do-do-do
[Chorus] You can drive all night Looking for the answers in the pouring rain You wanna find peace of mind Looking for the answer
[Verse 2] Funny how it seems like yesterday As I recall, you were looking out of place Gathered up your things and slipped away No time at all, I followed you into the hall Cigarette daydreams You were only seventeen So sweet with a mean streak Nearly brought me to my knees See Cage The Elephant Live Get tickets as low as $62 You might also like Fresh Out The Slammer Taylor Swift THE GREATEST Billie Eilish LUNCH Billie Eilish [Pre-Chorus] Do-do-do, do-do-do
[Chorus] You can drive all night Looking for the answers in the pouring rain You wanna find peace of mind Looking for the answer If we can find a reason, a reason to change Looking for the answer If you can find a reason, a reason to stay Standing in the pouring rain
[Bridge] Do-do, do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do Do-do, do-do-do-do
[Chorus] You can drive all night Looking for the answers in the pouring rain You wanna find peace of mind Looking for the answer If we can find a reason, a reason to change Looking for the answer If you can find a reason, a reason to stay Standing in the pouring rain
A somewhat obscure song.
“Cage The Elephant” — the Official Democrat Song.
I thought I had more. But I only have 9 CTE songs downloaded on my Amazon Music.
Of course Cigarette Daydreams is one of them.
Why did I think;
“Squirrel Nut Zippers” ——’HELL?’
Good tune. I have it on my 2010s playlist. Haven’t thought about it in a few years.
Wall of VooDoo
.
Mexican Radio
Awful band. I turn the station when their crap plays, it’s that bad.
Ain’t no rest for the wicked!
Not tooooo bad. Kinda sophomoric. Disconnected video images take away from the simple painfully adolescent lyrics..Looks like they thought it might be “original” to film in what looks like the misnamed L.A.”river”...probably a novel concept for the age of the people the video is aimed for.
Was expecting terrifying giant ants to muck up the scene, or Mamie Van Doren to start popping out of her sweater from “Girls Town” movie.
IMHO...with a nod to young love confusions.
