I Can Text and Drive Just Fine

I Can Text and Drive Just Fine

By Elton Camp

Some folks just can’t stand modern things
New technology, their wrath always brings

So time I spend driving isn’t thrown away,
I will look for text messages on my display

And there is simply no good reason why
I can’t, then and there, make a quick reply

That I haven’t ever wrecked sure is showing
It’s safe to text while on the road I’m going

To have my rights sure isn’t too much to ask
For I am easily able to drive while I multitask

Laws against it are a shame and a disgrace
The government should stay out of my face

Oh, there’s a message from girlfiend Jill
I’ll answer immediately & give her a thrill

Oh my goodness sake, this surely does suck
How have I possibly run underneath this truck?
