when you're gone I light a cigarette without a match,
snap a picture without a flash,
sling some mud without the trash,
catchphrase without a catch.
I eat bangers without mash,
smear mascara without a lash,
lone pirate without a patch,
party late without the grass.
I play poker without cash,
plate up breakfast without hash,
watch eggs that never hatch,
feel the itch without a scratch.
I taste passion without pash,
raise the window without a sash,
bumper car without a crash,
hundred yards without the dash.
Swan dive, without a splash.
