Miss Cigarette
Rizzle Kicks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Diiiiieeeeee Miss Illusion,
Mmm yeah I love it when my lips are on her,
There's a spark in our relationship I plant a kiss upon her,
I **** around too much and there's a risk that I'm a goner,
So I've got her on hand like a badge of honor,
The downside is she's never there when I'm lacking dollar,
So I've got to try and go through a day without acting bothered,
In the hope she'd leave me alone because I'm better off her,
But I see that spark and I just accept the offer,

So many people say why are you with her,
And I'm like; she's a damn good kisser,
She feeds my addiction,
She leaks something different,
The smoke from our last meeting has risen,
Keep her away from all of the other boys,
'Cause you know she's every single cutters choice,
Always there when the cold nights are lurking,
Gotta keep hold of my Golden virgin,

I think she's good for me,
That's why I don't want her to leave,
She helps me get down even when I shouldn't be,
She's there when I'm in need,
But she isn't cheap,
The last time I saw her,
Mostly I couldn't breathe,
And they say she's bad for me,
But they say she's bad for me,
But I don't think she's bad for me,
But it's a bit of a miss illusion,

She's got a mate called Benson,
But he's a bitter of a waster,
Always chats about silver and gold,
But I don't think that he's safe (right?)
Plus his mate like's to come out at break time,
Try's to act bad but I've smoked him like 8 times!,
And if I take it the wrong places then I face a fine,
And if I don't take it much she say's its a waste of time,
In fact she doesn't lie,
She tells me that she's bad for me,
Even when I patch things up I don't feel like I have to leave,

I said I had to leave; I had to get away,
It's funny when I'm not around I've seen better days,
Sometimes I demonstrate how to set it straight,
I filter out the bullshit and keep her locked in case,
But when I'm chilling she's always in my mind,
I do her out but the doubts are just glassed in side,
I should respond in time but then I found out,
The last boy she kissed coughed and died,

I think she's good for me,
That's why I don't want her to leave,
She helps me get down even when I shouldn't be,
She's there when I'm in need,
But she isn't cheap,
The last time I saw her,
Mostly I couldn't breathe,
And they say she's bad for me,
But they say she's bad for me,
But I don't think she's bad for me,
But it's a bit of a miss illusion,

M-I-S-S-C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E leave me be,
M-I-S-S-C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E leave me be,
Can you please leave my vicinity,
Can you please leave my vicinity,
Actually wait nah I'll have another kiss,
Oh **** I'm in love with this chick what this its,
Straight robbery,
She's always there when I'm by myself and I can't remain solitary,
Babe honestly,
It appears that your bad for my health and a quick way to poverty,
You went from my pal to my lover,
Now I see you outside with thousands of other,
But you're on my mind right now,
So I guess I'm coming down from another little fling,
Gotta confess this,

I think she's good for me,
That's why I don't want her to leave,
She helps me get down even when I shouldn't be,
She's there when I'm in need,
But she isn't cheap,
The last time I saw her,
Mostly I couldn't breathe,
And they say she's bad for me,
But they say she's bad for me,




But I don't think she's bad for me,
But it's a bit of a miss illusion

God I remember listening to this every day as a young teen, now I’m in my early 20’s and this song is still one of the best I’ve ever heard.

Tanner Hoskins

I listen to this when I was your age now. It’s so weird how different generations had the same music handed to them at different ages. I don’t smoke cigarettes now, and I love it.
