This has nothing to do with my work, just simple observations of made of other people I've known.

What rules do you decide to break, What are the rules you throw out? What are the rules that you ignore, The rules that you openly flout. Sort of slowing down for stop signs, Then speeding to the amber light, Are you the one to play music up loud, Throughout the entire night. Do you play poker, for money, at home, And share around the weed, Reshuffling life’s deck that was dealt, Unlocking your mind to be freed. Breaking rules is fine, ok, it’s no big deal, When it simply gets the job done, The finger pointers need to lighten up, Realising rules should never just stop the fun.

I guess we break the rules from time to time, without even realizing--well depicted!
