Lyrics
0:09I hold an image of the ashtray girl
0:10As the cigarette burns on my chest
0:13I wrote a poem that described her world
0:16That put my friendship to the test
0:20And late at night
0:21Whilst on all fours
0:22She used to watch me kiss the floor
0:27What's wrong with this picture
0:30What's wrong with this picture
0:33Farewell the ashtray girl
0:36Forbidden snowflake
0:39Beware this troubled world
0:42Watch out for earthquakes
0:45Goodbye to open sores
0:47To broken centre floor
0:49We know we miss her
0:55We miss her picture
0:57Sometimes it's faded
1:01Disintegrated
1:04For fear of growing old
1:09Sometimes it's faded
1:13Assassinated
1:16For fear of growing old
1:22Farewell the ashtray girl
1:25Angelic fruitcake
1:28Beware this troubled world
1:31Control your intake
1:34Goodbye to open sores
1:37Goodbye and furthermore
1:41We know we miss her
1:44We miss her picture
1:46Sometimes it's faded
1:50Disintegrated
1:53For fear of growing old
1:59Sometimes it's faded
2:02Assassinated
2:05For fear of growing old
2:13Hang on
2:15Though we try
2:19It's gone
2:25Hang on
2:28Though we try
2:31It's gone
2:36Sometimes it's faded
2:39Disintegrated
2:42For fear of growing old
2:48Sometimes it's faded
2:51Assassinated
2:55For fear of growing old
3:01Can't stop growing old
3:07Can't stop growing old
3:13Can't stop growing old
3:19Can't stop growing old
3:25Can't stop growing old
3:30END
