Mr Daring Aka Living Life On the Edge

You may not know it by looking at me But I live life on the edge At any given moment on any given day I laugh in the face of death Why, just the other night I didn't brush my teeth Before I went to bed That may shock you beyond all belief But that's just the reckless man that I am And if that isn't crazy enough I remember not so long ago Going outside in the pouring rain Without my galoshes on Can life be lived any more daring I know your dying to ask When you live life on the edge like I do That my friend is a simple known fact So don't say I didn't warn you That I live a wild and crazy life It may put your head into a spin But that's just how it is that I ride When I'm feeling extra spunky I refuse to use blinkers And use hand signals instead That's how it is in the business Of riding in the fast lane with death Your probably thinking with all of this madness How can one man even survive I guess I need to clarify I'm very careful With a lot of things in my life I do wear my cars safety belt I've read up on all of the facts Speed kills even at the top end of twenty Which I do to save on my gas And anti-bacterial lotion I don't do one squirt but two Don't let that change your opinion of me Being Mr. Daring to you Cause one thing that I always do And I know your going to say "NO WAY!" I sometimes ride the city bus Without having the correct change...
