We are the tobacco companies
We are killing machines
The reason we exist
Is 'cos we're big and bad and mean
We ruin people's lives
But the government lets us prosper
Because we put a lot of money
Into a lot of people's coffers
We can even advertise
In countries like the USA
Over there we spend
16 million dollars every day
Promoting our deadly product
In every possible way we can
We love getting people addicted
It's all part of our plan
But we've never really thought our plan
Through right to the end
Because if we kill so many
We'll even kill our friends
(Sydney, Australia - 2003)
