In the morning they’ll hurt like cigarette burns

The summer’s daft

And winter’s long

He was smokin’ a Viceroy Filter King
You’re the greatest of men
That God’s ever seen

It’s just a cigarette and it cannot be that bad
Honey don’t you love me and you know it makes me sad?
It’s just a cigarette like you always used to do
I was different then, I don’t need them to be cool

It’s just a cigarette and it harms your pretty lungs
Well it’s only twice a week so there’s not much of a chance
It’s just a cigarette it’ll soon be only ten
Honey can’t you trust me when I want to stop I can

It’s just a cigarette and it’s just a Marlboro Light
Maybe but is it worth it if we fight?
It’s just a cigarette that I got from Jamie-Lee
She’s gonna get a smack and I’m gonna give you three

It’s just a cigarette and I only did it once
(It’s just a cigarette and soon be only ten)
It’s only twice a week so there’s not much of a chance
(It will make you sick girl, there’s not much other chance)
It’s just a cigarette and I’m sorry that I did it
(It’s just a cigarette and we’re sorry that we did)
Honey can’t you trust me when I want to stop I can

Sobre la vieja fachada de ladrillo rojo apenas se podía leer ya, en 1998, el mensaje publicitario: Philip Morris. America’s Finest Cigarette. A lo lejos, la silueta de las torres gemelas.

Tobacco, Tobacco
sing sweetly for Tobacco,
Tobacco is like love, O love it
for you see I will prove it
Love maketh leane the fatte mens tumor,
so doth Tobacco,
Love still dries uppe the wanton humor,
so doth Tobacco,
Love makes men sayle from shore to shore,
so doth Tobacco,
Tis fond love often makes men poor
so doth Tobacco,
Love makes men scorne all Coward feares,
so doth Tobacco,
Love often sets men by the eares,
so doth Tobacco.
Tobaccoe, Tobaccoe
Sing sweetely for Tobaccoe,
Tobaccoe is like Love, O love it,
For you see I have prowde it.
