Please Don't Smoke

Please Don't Smoke

A little Frog setting on an old toadstool,
Said please don't smoke, or you'll be a fool,
But the big giraffe said, I don't care,
I'm going to blow this smoke everywhere.

The Frog said wait, let me tell you the facts,
Then if you still want to smoke, I'll buy you a pack,
The giraffe said, great let me hear your tale,
A free pack of smokes would be just swell.

Then the Frog started talking of sickness and of pain,
That cigarettes cause, to smoke them is insane,
The giraffe bowed his head and said with a frown,
Froggie I tried to quit, will you help me now.

The Frog said, sure I'll help you friend,
But first you have to say, cigarettes I don't need you again,
And mean it when you say it, that's the only way,
If you have the want to, you can quit today.

Now the Frog was smart he didn't smoke at all,
And the giraffe wised up, before he took the fall,
And all you others, know what smoking can do,
And you can quit, IF you really want to.
