Sly Cigarette |
| That sly cigarette. |
| Song sung in 1898 by miss. |
| s. |
| h. |
| dudley for the runaway girl |
| And this is tiny tim trying to redo it. |
| If girls and boys were asked what joys |
| They found the most entrancing |
| Each boy would name his favorite game |
| >from sports, drink and dancing |
| But girls with me will all agree |
| Although you think Im joking |
| With twinkling eye theyd make reply |
| The best of all is smoking. |
| Oh, sly cigarette |
| Oh, fine cigarette |
| Why did you teach me to love you so When I have to pretend that I dont, you know |
| (repeat above chorus three times) |
| Oh, you poor little cigarette! |
| How theyre stomping and crushing you today. |
| Theyre taking advantage of your small little nature |
| Theyre blaming you for cancer when you can still get |
| Cholesterol from butter and fat from lard and bacon |
| And all these meats and cheeses that are causing heart attacks and tumors |
| Why are they picking on you, oh sly cigarette? |
| its not fair, somebody has to protest! |
| And get back to normality again |
| Oh, sly cigarette |
| Oh, fine cigarette |
| Why did you teach me to love you so When I have to pretend that I dont, you know |
| Oh, sly cigarette |
| Oh, fine cigarette |
| Why did you teach me to love you so When I have to pretend that I dont, you know |
