LYRICS
There goes another instance
Of being a victim of circumstance

Whoever wrote Murphy’s Law
Charge ’em with greatest crime of all time
Whoever passed Murphy’s Law
Committed the greatest crime of them all

They have made it so it won’t be long
“Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong”
They’ve created the worst baggage
Perpetuating pessimism with an old adage

Halt! Holt did put it quite simply
“Sufficient stress can hardly be
… laid on the advantages of simplicity”
Decreasing dependence on being lucky

As the Boy Scouts declared —
Be prepared! Be prepared!
’cause they really didn’t lie
When they said, “Sooner of later… you’re gonna die”
But, in the meantime I’d rather choose
To hear some more of the good news
So until that day I’ll just pray
The old adage keeps at bay… ’till a ripe old age

Now, concerning this here song
About anything that can go wrong going wrong
Murphy’s Law must be more weak than strong
When applied to itself, it too goes wrong
