Where's My Zippo?

I have a personlized Zippe lighter- and it is quite unique
Has cyanide capsules attached
For those dummies that so seek
to die in pain, to grasp for air
And are in a hurry too...
They say when you take cyanide
you turn a very blue
I guess we should sell guns to children
Free with a candy bar...
That'll show the world
Just how stupid we still are...
And each kindergarten lunch box,
Come packaged with some gin
We don't seem to have much common sense
And that really is a sin...
As for me, I'll go on driving
drunk with blindfold pulled down
I want so much to fit in
to be another clown

Oh, yes, let's not forget
Alligators in our pools
Just another indication
Just how much we are fools!
