Cigarettes And Chocolate Milk

Rufus Wainwright

ANÁLISIS | SIGNIFICADO

Cigarettes and chocolate milk, these simple pleasures hold a special place in the singer's heart. The cravings for these indulgences reflect a pattern in their life - always drawn to things a little bit stronger, a little bit thicker, a little bit harmful. Jellybeans must be devoured in one sitting, sweetness and fattiness adding a dangerous allure.

But there are other desires, unspoken and mysterious, a little bit stranger, a little bit harder, a little bit deadly. The singer reflects on the folly of these cravings, how they can leave one brokenhearted and lost in memories of a past self.

The lyrics weave a tale of urban life, of scrappy boys with wild faces and prodigal sons seeking solace. Amidst the chaos, the singer urges to maintain a sense of mystery and resilience, to walk the tightrope of existence with grace.

Hints of heritage and vulnerability seep through the verses, painting a picture of a complex soul - a heiress, Irish, and a bit like the leaning Tower of Pisa. Despite the messiness, the singer asks for kindness, a gentle nod to their flaws and intricacies.

In the end, the refrain echoes - cigarettes and chocolate milk, a bittersweet reminder of the singer's journey through life's cravings and complexities.
