[James coughs]
Mhm, I need some Listerine!
My throat, choke it up
Gotta quit that smokin'!
Smokin' and drinkin'
Will slow your thinkin'
Smokin' and drinkin'
Is my way of life
Smokin' and talkin'
Will have you chokin'
Smokin' and talkin'
Won't make it right
Dippin' and sippin'
You're a waste of time
Dippin' and sippin'
You ain't my kind
Smokin' and drinkin'
Will slow your thinkin'
Smokin' and talkin'
Won't make it right
So you better stop, check it out
'Cause you've been smokin' and drinkin'
For much too long
You got your mind messed up
You're moving too slow
And where was it, you wanted to go...?
