Cigars and Satin Shorts lyrics
by Roe Kapara
[Verse 1]
Wipe your eyes and make things clear
Left it the same it was last year
Can't cool down and make things right
Starving yourself, put up a fight
[Pre-Chorus]
You can run so far
Making the world the way you are
You can be so sweet
A shame that it makes you look so weak
[Chorus]
Scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
Smoking big cigars in satin shorts
Life's not fair, you're born out of luck
Try your best to give a f*ck
Ooh, Lord, don't give up
Even though you'll never fill that cup
It'll never work if you don't try
It only has to work sometimes, sometimes
[Post-Chorus]
Oooh, ah, oooh
Oooh, ah oooh
Woah ah ah
[Verse 2]
Try your luck but can't succeed
The house always wins to some degree
Your wells dried up, there's no more tears
You ask "Is it getting worse this year?"
[Pre-Chorus]
You can run so far
Making the world the way you are
You can be so sweet
A shame that it makes you look so weak
[Chorus]
Scratch my back and I'll scratch yours
Smoking big cigars in satin shorts
Life's not fair, you're born out of luck
Try your best to give a f*ck
Ooh, my Lord, don't give up
Even though you'll never fill that cup
It'll never work if you don't try
It only has to work sometimes, sometimes
[Post-Chorus]
Oooh, ah, oooh
Oooh, ah oooh
Woah ah ah
