If it weren't for Murphy and his Law
I'd have nothing to fall down on

Nothing that I could place the blame
Or have friends say, that's a dog gone shame

Imagine how boring life would be
If everything always went right for me

If nothing ever did break down
If all my dominoes stood their ground

And all my ducks stayed in a row
I'd never have to waddle home

If everything always ran smooth
Then I'd run out of things to do

If this chicken's sky did not sometimes fall
If this car I drive did not hit some walls

If all I do was set on cruise
Then I'd never stop to see the view

There is an advantage to Murphy's Law
That never have I seen before

If Murphy's Law wasn't there for me
Then never would I have a need
