I see a traffic jam up ahead <br />I'll be late, may as well be dead <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />The boss at work <br />Is such a jerk <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />The car won't start <br />It's got no heart <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />It has started to rain <br />That's such a pain <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />Had an argument with my wife <br />There was a bit of strife <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />I've just got up <br />Before I pour my first cup <br />Better have a cigarette <br /> <br />Better have a cigarette <br />That's what I say <br />At the slightest thing <br />Throughout each day <br /> <br />I'm not sure how to finish this rhyme <br />So I will say it another time <br />Better have a cigarette<br /><br />Alessandra Liverani<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/better-have-a-cigarette/
