I light my cigar, from whence comes the nicotine That blackens my lungs and poisons my blood But the taste of it becomes a sensational feeling, A satisfaction to my nicotine enslaved wind-pipe A huge urge to take it again and again One after another An addiction that enslaves me. I light my cigar, from whence comes the nicotine That keeps me company all day and night long An enemy   I cherish and revere That shortens my days and nights in disguise One after another An addiction that takes away my own life.

I light my cigar
I light my cigar, from whence comes the nicotine That blackens my lungs and poisons my blood But the taste of it becomes a sensational feeling, A satisfaction to my nicotine enslaved wind-pipe A huge urge to take it again and again One after another An addiction that enslaves me. I light my cigar, from whence comes the nicotine That keeps me company all day and night long An enemy   I cherish and revere That shortens my days and nights in disguise One after another An addiction that takes away my own life.
