First Rate Smokes
VERSE 1
D MajorD
My name is Seymour Green
G+G
I'm an honest business man
D MajorD
I make First Rate Smokes
G+G
From a warehouse in my van
D MajorD
I've had some troubles
G+G
With the EPA
D MajorD
I change my company name
G+G
Every other day
D MajorD
I hire out workers
G+G
From Kentucky factories
D MajorD
Who spend their days working for
G+G
R.J. Reynolds Industries
D MajorD
They find me in the parking lot
G+G
When the factory whistle blows
D MajorD
And we roll up all the tobacco
G+G
That gets stuck between their toes
Chorus
D MajorD
Take off your shoes
G+G
It's time to go to work
G+G
It's 3am and we're setting up shop
D MajorD
Take off your socks
G+G
Start scraping those nails
D MajorD
If the ATF discovers us
G+G
It's GPCs from jail
VERSE 2
I'm in cahoots with some Canucks
Just above the borderline
They package all my products
With cute logos and designs
I distribute to truck stops
And small town liquor stores
They buy cases of cartons
And call me up for more
VERSE 3
Thrifty smokers don't mind
Where their cigarettes are from
All they really want
Is smoke and tar in their lungs
So if you ever buy a pack
Of First Rate Smokes
You know the tar won't kill you
But the smell will make you choke
