Some people develop an addiction and any addiction is not a good thing One might say an unhealthy habit that through our lives to we do tend to cling Some are addicted to nicotine and some are addicted to alcohol and some are addicted to narcotics the worst addiction of all The gene of addiction is in the addictive even before they learn how to crawl, Addictions are very unpleasant for the addicted they can make life hell And I should know I am addicted to the penning of doggerel 'Til death my addiction is with me and that seems a sad thing to say It compels me for to keep on penning I wish I could give it away But suppose I could have a worse addiction I could be hooked on heroin or cocaine In prison for robbery with violence to buy drugs a crazed fellow sick in the brain Penning of doggerel may not be the best for you but at least it won't damage your health But from it you will not earn a living or know of fame or material wealth Some people develop an addiction that into a bad habit does grow It is a flawed gene born in you since I am one who ought to know.
