“Fools making laws for the breaking of jaws, and the sound of the keys as they clink, and there’s no time to think” From Bob Dylan’s “No Time to Think” From the album “Street Legal”

Enough of the serious of the last week or so, back to my nonsense, but it does have a sting in the tail.

The Law of Averages

I broke the law of averages, but that’s par for the course
I broke the law of gravity, I fell up onto a horse
I’ll break the law of grammar, I’ll do it in past tense
I’m breaking the law of sanity, -cause this ain’t making sense

The law of the jungle was that made by a lion?
Three point one four two, was that a law with pie on?
The law of sod, or even Sod’s Law
What can go wrong will go wrong, that’s what that laws is for

I nearly got caught speeding once, but wasn’t going fast enough
When I didn’t get a ticket, I felt a proper chuff
Newton’s law so it’s said was when that apple hit him on his head
But if a piano, not an apple what would Newton then have said?

British police are looking for a man with only just one arm
It’s a very long arm though, not like those gendarme’s
The police are also looking for a man with only just one eye
Why they don’t use both of them, well nobody really knows why

The law is an ass so they say, but the rich can run so fast
But if you’re poor you’ll be struck down by the jaw bone of an ass
We the common folk break the law, but leaders break the rules
Ah! but they are so clever, and we but only fools.

All words excepting Dylan quote Meadowhead Bard.
