lyrics

Don’t smoke around here
Then you’ll see my nostrils flare and me
Put that butt out right there on your face

Yeah it’s nice to share
But share your air and I’ll butt right in
With my best death stare and a little chagrin

To begin, I’d make rooms for your dirty fumes
Away from my food
In the basement, yeah a 2 by 2 sauna den
With no ventilation or windows
Where you can smoke to your heart’s extent

I’m so sick of this scene
It’s pure and clean, in the blue sea air
And a wiff of smoke is drifting over green hairs

So I turn to see
The guilty stick of a stuck up bitch as
She draws a suck into her
Puckered up lips, (silly git)

Past a tongue long since tasting, I’d say anything
And a throat to be robotronic in years
And as I fear
Flicks the smoking gun to the soil
And puts it out with her heels

What say I do earth’s will
And gather packs of thrown Dunhill
Butts instead of the tip
I’ll flick them all at your head in your bed

Cheap cigarettes
With Winfield blues surely you can’t lose
But please don’t forget
To roll-your-own noose, (stupid goose)

Your heart tics are weaker than baby’s clicks
A derelict heart: beat, beat, stick…
Then kick starts in

And your lungs, tarred and heaving
Are the reasons you wheeze
Like it’s freezing cold

When you breathe
I should leave community announcements to
Government bodies and research studies but

If I were to hazard a guess
I’d say
Smoking is hazardous to your health

Cancer sticks?
Cut it out for life
