Cold Sore Superstars Lyrics

Crawled back into bed, pretending to sleep
Clammy in my jammies, dress is hurting its keep
Maybe it's the pills or the drugs or the booze
Maybe it's the fact that I want me to lose

Think about a girl that knocked me off of my feet
Trade her for a hooker that said I was sweet
Another bender, repeat offender
Another bender, repeat offender

Close your eyes to see just where you are

Crawled back into bed, pretending to sleep
Clammy in my jammies, dress is hurting its keep
Maybe it's the pills or the drugs or the booze
Maybe it's the fact that I want me to lose

Think about a girl that knocked me off of my feet
Trade her for a hooker that said I was sweet
Another bender, repeat offender
Sex and drugs are legal tender
Another bender, repeat offender
Sex and drugs are legal tender

Close your eyes to see just where you are
Cold sore superstar
You know that he snorts right where you are

Another bender, repeat offender
Sex and drugs are legal tender
Another bender, repeat offender
Sex and drugs are legal tender

Close your eyes to see just where you are

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
