"Cigarettes Will Kill You" is a single by Australian artist Ben Lee. It is from the album Breathing Tornados. It was voted number 2 in the Triple J Hottest 100, 1998.

During the April 24, 2006 concert at Irving Plaza in New York, Ben described how he came up with the title for the track. He recalled that he had been listening to The Verve who have a song called "The Drugs Don't Work". He was so impressed with the title of the song, that he decided to name his song with a similarly catchy title.

The song was featured in the 2002 Australian comedy "Crackerjack".
