Quittin' smoking by a now crazy person!


Yippee  Yi Yay - Yippee Yi Yo
no smoking is in this town

I wonder how many sandwiches I can devour
wonder if my stomach will blow up in all its sorrow

yippee Yi Yay - Yip Yi yo_oooo!
quit that smokin' is coming 'round
when that no smoking 'rrives in your lovely town
you'll think that PMS is the best joy to be found

chew your nails - eat celery and carrots
sucking lifesavers by the pound
(or was that soothing chocolates?) ahahahahaaaaa!

Yippee yi yah   yippe yi yo  oooooh!  
quittin' smokin' is comin' 'round

Well, it is  day number four and don't
know if I can make it one more

who can I kill?  who can I smother?
only know one important thing
if you ne'er had tobacco at your lips
do yourself a favor ne'er start so ya
don't have to quit__Itttttt!

Yippee yi Yah   Yippee yi yo--OOO
smokin' is a no  ah no, ah no, ah no nooooooooooooooooooo!

did I hit you with that balled up piece of paper
did you hear when I said, do yourself a favor?
don't start so you don't have to go through this

You may think it is cool to see those cigs in
someone's mouth  


- but to them it takes their lungs away _aaaaa!

Yippee yi yay      yippee yi yo
smokers are all 'round  - please
let me get though one more day --------aaay
just one day at a time--Timmmmmmmmmmmmme!

I know where you're coming from unfortunately.  I haven't succeeded yet, and am afraid to try again for all your "oh too memorable" reasons above.  Your descriptive poem hits home Netswan!

Best wishes,
/Kit

ROTFLMAO...... This made my day, netswan...

I have to admit I'm a non-smoker - but I can still appreciate this one... Gigglin' here...

Swan,
This one I must keep
As the day shall come
When I too shall chant
The Swan's YippiYiYa song!
