I Was Born a Cancer (Remastered)

Listen

Listen to this song

I was tall, I was strong

When I had to go

Went to the Tropics

Beneath the Capricorn

My captain said, "You have a cancer of the lungs "

I say amen to smoke-tobacco

Say amen to smoke-tobacco

Say amen to smoke-tobacco

It's a divine holocaust

I say amen to smoke-tobacco

Say amen to smoke-tobacco

Say amen

Oh my love

You ask me, "Why do you smoke?"

But you talk and talk and talk and talk

And you never have a look at the clouds

You see, in Heaven, angels smoke too

They do get bored like me, like you

And if it's not stress, I guess

It must be happiness

That made them send those lovely SOS

I was born to die of cancer

I was born to die of cancer

I was born to die of cancer

No matter if I smoke

I was stressed, I was oppressed

I felt pain, I felt dread

I was born to die of cancer

No matter if I smoke

Marlboro

Marlboro Lights

Dunhill Gold

Lucky Strike

Camel Blend

Craven A

Gauloises Blondes

Benson Hedges

Oh you tell me, "It's suicide"

It's true we don't have so much time

To start a cure of dis-intoxication

But it's so hard to be a-modern

To be a-careful with your health

I'm not a sportsman after all

Cult of the body destroys the soul

Yeah, the soul

We have to roll on

We have to roll on

Oh baby, hash to hash

And now it's dust to dust

I was still smoking on the verge of dying

Oh baby, hash to hash

And now it's dust to dust

Oh baby, hash to hash

And now it's gone
