LYRICS
\nThere goes another instance
\nOf being a victim of circumstance<\/p>\n

Whoever wrote Murphy’s Law
\nCharge ’em with greatest crime of all time
\nWhoever passed Murphy’s Law
\nCommitted the greatest crime of them all<\/p>\n

They have made it so it won’t be long
\n“Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong”
\nThey’ve created the worst baggage
\nPerpetuating pessimism with an old adage<\/p>\n

Halt! Holt did put it quite simply
\n“Sufficient stress can hardly be
\n… laid on the advantages of simplicity”
\nDecreasing dependence on being lucky<\/p>\n

As the Boy Scouts declared —
\nBe prepared! Be prepared!
\n’cause they really didn’t lie
\nWhen they said, “Sooner of later… you’re gonna die”
\nBut, in the meantime I’d rather choose
\nTo hear some more of the good news
\nSo until that day I’ll just pray
\nThe old adage keeps at bay… ’till a ripe old age<\/p>\n

Now, concerning this here song
\nAbout anything that can go wrong going wrong
\nMurphy’s Law must be more weak than strong
\nWhen applied to itself, it too goes wrong<\/p>\n
