in reply to Do you smoke tobacco?

Tobacco is a filthy weed,
That from the devil does proceed;
It drains your purse, it burns your clothes,
And it makes a chimney of your nose.

    Which of course leads us to

    Tobacco is a dirty weed. I like it.
    It satisfies no normal need. I like it.
    It makes you thin, it makes you lean,
    It takes the hair right off your bean
    It's the worst darn stuff I've ever seen.
    I like it.

      I'm honestly not trying to one-up anyone, but...

      Don't smoke, don't smoke
      the official dope\.
      Nicotine is too obscene\.
      Suck c..k, suck t..?t,
      but don't suck that sh.t\.
