| Found his memoirs in an old junk shop |
| Dated from 1916 |
| Sentenced to death while still shell-shocked |
| For deserting the infantry |
| Blindfold on and one step back |
| No need to get upset |
| Don’t be hasty with the trigger boys |
| Let him smoke his one last cigarette |
| Down in the hospital on the 9th ward |
| An old man scratches his head |
| Reaching into his bedside drawer |
| He waits 'til the nurse is downstairs |
| 'I'm nearly cured I’ve been so brave |
| And there’s no need to fret |
| I’m gonna really quit this time |
| Let me smoke my one last cigarette' |
| Straight as a corkscrew |
| As bright as the night |
| Blind to the horror |
| Blind to the very horror of this sorry life |
| The awkward girl with a broken heart |
| Smashes her mirror until it fractures |
| Leaning down she picks up a shard |
| And ponders to question her actions |
| A selfish act, she’s full aware |
| But the best one she’s done yet |
| With tired eyes and steady hands |
| She’ll smoke her one last cigarette |
| Straight as a corkscrew |
| As bright as the night |
| Blind to the horror |
| Blind to the very horror of this sorry life |
