I've tasted hunger, felt the tooth
Saw spectral figures from my youth
In dreams, then I awoke
Kids, don't smoke
I don't need to slash the night
To violate it with my light
The moon's already made its stroke
Kids, don't smoke
Someone’s here. I start to bark
In the quiet of the dark
A warning, challenge or a joke?
Kids, don’t smoke
Through the darkness and the thickness
I’ve felt the coming of the sickness
Sticky as a rum & coke
Kids, don’t smoke

I showed this to a friend who suggested dropping the tagline, which I like. If nothing else, it makes the have a somewhat unusual shape. So another possible version:
