Djo Life – French Cigarettes lyrics

I walk into the place
$9 a beer
I see you at the bar and realize why I’m here
You’re tossing your hair
Like you’re in a parade
And lost your baton when you looked away
Everybody stares at you.

I’m mesmerized, I’m engulfed in your eyes
I want to explode and then run and hide
You’re taking small sips from painted on lips
I’m locked up in chains and totally whipped
And I need to talk to you

But it’s as tough
Tough as it gets and you said:
“J’en ai besoin as tu des alumettes”
And I didn’t know what that meant.

But it’s as good, good as it gets
I’ve fallen for you
I’ve fallen for you and your French Cigarettes

If you left me now that’d be such a shame
I’m head over heels and I just learned your name
My heart it beats like a hummingbird’s
And beautiful is not a strong enough word.

You’re taking small sips from ruby red lips
I’m locked up in chains and totally stripped
And I need to make love to you right now, yes I do.

But it’s as tough
Tough as it gets and you said:
“J’en ai besoin as tu des alumettes”
And now I know what that means

But it’s as good, good as it gets
I’ve fallen for you
I’ve fallen for you and your French Cigarettes
