Jealous of Your Cigarette

Okay, I like the song as much as anyone... But why do people ever take up smoking, knowing what it does to their bodies? Even if one doesn't end up with Lung Cancer, there's still cancer of the Eusophagus (sp?), breathing problems, coughing, bad skin, messed up hair. terrible breath. ugly teeth. i just don't get it?

Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying I'd never smoke. Or that I never have. Both would be lies. However, if I wanted to quit I really could. I'm much more addicted to caffeine and my gum. :P

I just don't get why people do it to begin with. I understand why they continue, fighting an addiction (or stress) can be difficult... But why start knowing all there is to know?
