Put Down Your Cigarette Rag (Don't Smoke)

By Allen Ginsberg (1971)

Dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke
Dont smoke
It's a nine billion dollar
Capitalist Communist joke
Dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke
Dont smoke

Smoking makes you cough,
You cant sing straight
You gargle on saliva
and vomit on your plate
Dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke,
Dont smoke smoke smoke smoke

You smoke in bed
You smoke on the hill
Smoke till yr dead
You smoke in Hell
Dont smoke dont smoke in living Hell Dope Dope
Dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke

You puff your fag
You suck your butt
You choke and gag
Teeth full of crud
Smoke smoke smoke smoke Dont dont dont
Dont Dont Dope Dope Dope Dont Smoke Dont Dope

Pay your two bucks
for a deathly pack
Trust your bad luck
and smoke in the sack
Dont Smoke Dont Smoke Nicotine Nicotine No
No dont smoke the official Dope Smoke Dope Dope

Four Billion dollars in Green
'swat Madison Avenue gets
t' advertise nicotine
and; hook you radical brats
Dont Smoke Dont Smoke Dont Smoke

Black magic pushes dope
Sexy chicks in cars
America loses hope
and smokes and drinks in bars
Don't smoke dont smoke dont smoke,
dont smoke dont dont dont dont dont
choke choke choke choke kaf kaf
Kaf Kaf Choke Choke
Choke Choke Dope Dope

Communism's flopped

America loses hope
The President smokes Tobacco votes
Dont Smoke dont smoke dont smoke dont smoke

30 thousand die of coke or
Illegal speed each year

That's the drug to fear
In USA Dont smoke Dont smoke Dont smoke

Get Hooked on Cigarettes

Dont smoke dont smoke the official dope

If you will get in bed
and give your girlfriend head

Nor evermore a drag
