I got an idea for next year

It’s a product that’ll be hotter than the atmosphere

Once you start, you can barely quit

Find yourself saying "I just need one more hit"

Pretty soon you're addicted, fully committed

You’ll be feigning every time you start to miss it

Did I mention, here's my intention

The more you do, the more you need, the more you’ll be stressing

Should I add it smells real gross?

You can't escape 'cause you baked into all of your clothes

And there's just one more thing, it'll kill you

There's just one more thing, it'll kill you

And that sounds crazy, so crazy, but check it out

'Cause cigarettes are a real thing, think about it

Cigarettes are a real thing

Nothing like that would ever be legal

If our government cared about the people

​

We’re buying our way right to our death

With every single pack of cigarettes

Starting your life with a 100g debt

Pretty soon we’ll all be addicted to meds

Call me crazy, call me blind

I just don’t see how they have us in mind

Call me crazy, call me blind

I just don’t see how they have us in mind

'Cause cigarettes are a real thing, think about it

Cigarettes are a real thing

You feeling sad? Well, here’s a cure

Swallow 2, or 3 of these before you walk out the door

They're selling pills with more side effects

Then the diagnosis that they claim they’re gonna correct

Said now you ain't right, no, you ain't right

At 18, I can drive a deadly weapon

At 19, I can buy a carcinogen

At 21 I can drink poison, and yet I can't smoke a plant just for fun

You let me pay to kill myself

But I can't buy a little pleasure from a woman herself?

If I wanna buy that, why can't I?

And if I grow plants, why can't I?

'Cause cigarettes are a real thing, think about it

Cigarettes are a real thing

So crazy, so crazy, yeah, they're a real, real thing, ah, ah, ah, oh, yeah
