Coffee and Cigarettes Lyrics

(one, two, one two three four)
Coffee
And cigarettes
Are my only escape
I've got my cup of Joe,
My pack of Stogs,
And I'm on my way
Downtown
To set up shop
And sing my cares away
So won't you sing with me?
'Cause it's cold outside
And...

    I think that in this song he is saying that cigarettes are his way of escaping everything around him and this feeling of being alone. in the song he mentions a girl and asks her two things " So, won't you sing with me,
    'Cause it's cold outside, and I'm feeling kinda lonely." and "So what do you say, just as friends, we see a movie This weekend, alright? Okay." He wants her to notice him and be with him but instead he's alone with only some coffee and cigarettes, because "Friday nights are always the same in this town."

    He's singing about how he loves coffee and cigarettes and he's saying he wants to share the joy he gets from it with a girl. He doesn't like the Friday night parties and prefers his singing and doing things with the girl, instead of going out with friends to meet more people and drink.
