Analysis of Smoking
Those who smoke have no brain
They do not eat dust, but grain
Being sane, they must feel pain
Smoking is not comfort is pain
Even a soldier doesn't want to die
He tries to escape, volley of fires
So, how come loose your brain
Smoking is not comfort is pain
Wasted millions to get you trained
How come show us, empty brain
You burn dollars, we feel pains
Smoking is not comfort, is pain
Think, by quitting smoking what gain
Look healthy, & smiles your friends
I see smile on face of your family, and
They say, smoking is not comfort is pain
Thye're not reading in between lines, guys
This gift of life, comes only once to enjoy
Thank nature, what he has gifted to enjoy
Smoking is not comfort is pain, think boy
