Never Take Life Too Serious

Screw the rules is the motto I live by Too old to toe the line So sue me and then just try to collect Won't be alive to pay the fine I'll be kicking up daisies on a hill out back As you tear out all your hair Sure had the last laugh you **** type people So break the rules if you dare Rules are made to be broken I've heard Love to see the reaction These sillies go nutso and red in the face At my blatant infraction Oh for the days when we burned our garbage In a fire pit behind our house And just for a little excitement sometimes We'd throw on a little mouse Barbaric you say, I learned from the best Daddy taught me all about life Said “never take life too serios, my son” You don't to go around twice © Jack Ellison 2015
