But I Got Over You

It was so cool to have you in my pocket by the pool. But I got over you Now I have a new friend, I hope he won't stay. It's all this weight gain since you went away. ..But I got over you. When you here, I'd take one puff, well, a pack of you a day just wasn't enough. ..But I got over you. Once I thought one or two of you could stay. Soon the whole pack of you was puffed that day. ..But I got over you. In the mornings you grabbed me by the throat And now in the mornings this oxygen tank I tote ..But I got over you. You stained my teeth a yellowed site. With my browned fingers I'm an awful fright. ..But I got over you. You where a friend to many when you were just a penny. ..But I got over you. To some you will always be their friend until the painful bitter end ..But I got over you.
