If I Told You, I'D Have To Kill You - and Other Click Bait From the Shopping Aisles

I've pondered freedom today Unencumberment to be reckless Answerable to no one The thing is I enforce rules upon myself So I'd be pretty tame Although in the supermarket I went in the trolley self check out queue with a basket (the acceptable rule breaking scenario). The lady said I wasn't allowed but I politely responded with my reasoning whilst beginning to scan my shopping - ha past the point where it's not worth stopping me Perhaps I'd be a criminal mastermind I perfected the 'walking like I'm supposed to be here' look whilst at school so I could have my dinner at the time I wanted rather than what the board said (my friends let me down with guilty faces getting caught by the dinner ladies though) - criminal mastermind Stick it to the man type criminality only The victimless not quite crimes So with all that training under my belt, I wonder what I'd do with free rein... I feel those are the secrets I'll keep
