[00:55.79]Stinkin up the ashtrays
[00:57.54]Paper in fire
[00:59.10]Smokin up the alleyways
[01:00.84]Whos to say the way
[01:02.53]A man should spend his days
[01:04.73]Do you let them smolder
[01:07.35]Like paper in fire
[01:12.47]He wanted love
[01:14.15]With no involvement
[01:19.03]So he chased the wind
[01:20.84]Thats all his silly life required
[01:25.52]And the days of vanity
[01:27.77]Went on forever
[01:31.89]And he saw his days burn up

[02:28.63]Right across the green fields
[02:33.43]And each generation
[02:35.24]Stares at it from afar
