Free the brain

O vile nicotine,

You enter through the alveolar sac

and then you attack

You pass the BB barrier

With acetyl choline as your carrier

O vile Nicotine,

You ride on us like a pannier

And you make us snappier, tetchier

While we falsely think we are happier

O vile nicotine,

You enter the hypothalamus

with all the force you slam us

dopamine you cascade

in the mesolimbic and the frontal cortex, you pervade

and into our minds you invade

your machinations are so energy homeostatic

that you leave us high and ecstatic

O vile Nicotine, trick the brain you do

you are so very shewrd

to make us think of you as food

Then cleverly, you play with our mood

With the synaptic neurotransmission you allude

You trump up by creating the wanting

With all your flaunting and haunting

Seemingly, to stave you off is daunting

Meandering through the neuronal jungle

O vile nicotine, us you enslave

To fall for you we were naive

Devoid of all your powers

Deplete you do in about two hours

You leave us as your lovers

O vile nicotine induce you do a crave so intense

Oblivious we are of your pretence

To know we have come of your greed

O vile nicotine you will not succeed

Into us you will not arrive

With you we will not connive

O vile nicotine, now you will not thrive

Our sanity we will not let you deprive

Entry into us you cannot gain

As the do gooder you  can’t  feign

This is the end of your reign

O vile nicotine you cannot cause any more pain
