When I was only 7 I smoked my first cigarette
I coughed up a lung til I thought I was dead
When I was only 13 my mate gave me some pot
I got so stoned, since that day I haven't stopped
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
It used to be all fun but now I'm living like a bum
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
It used to be all fun but now I'm just fucken dumb
When I was only 15 started drinking like a fish
It was always on I couldn't turn off that switch
And when I started drinking, started smoking even more
Don't take a genius to tell you why I'm poor
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
It used to be all fun but now I'm living like a bum
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
You can probably tell my dad just don't tell my mum
Should I quit smoking? It's never too late (NO!)
I was just joking have you got one on ya mate?
What's the point of living if you're following all the rules?
I'd fix my life around if I had the right tools
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
It used to be all fun but now I'm living like a bum
Black lung, black lung
What have I done?
It used to be all fun but now I'm just fucken dumb
You can probably tell my dad just don't tell my mum
