WHEN I WAS A BOY
IN SCHOOL
LEARNING
THE GOLDEN RULE
I HAD A CRUSH
ON MY TEACHER
SHE WAS A
BEAUTIFUL CREATURE
WHEN I LOOK AT KIDS
TODAY
I THINK OF
HOW WE USED TO PLAY
SHE TAUGHT ALL US
BOYS AND GIRLS
THIS LITTLE SONG
ABOUT THE
REAL REAL WORLD
SHE SAID NOW CLASS
IF IT WILL IT WILL
AND IF IT WON'T
IT WON'T
IF IT DOES IT DOES
YEAH IF IT DON'T
IT DON'T
SOME DAYS ARE GOOD
SOME BAD
YOU KNOW
THAT'S THE WAY IT GOES
GIVE THE WHEEL OF LIFE
A SPIN
SEE WHERE IT LANDS
LET YOUR SPIRIT
FLY FREE
ENJOY YOURSELF
WHILE YOU CAN
DON'T BE IN A HURRY
AND DON'T EVER
MAKE PLANS
CAUSE IF IT WILL IT WILL
AND IF IT WON'T
IT WON'T
IF IT DOES IT DOES
YEAH IF IT DON'T
IT DON'T
LIFE IS NOT ALWAYS
SO SMOOTH
AND MURPHY'S LAW
IS GONNA RULE
YOU KNOW THE RIVER'S
GONNA FLOW
WHEREVER
IT WANTS TO GO
AND IF THE RAIN
WANTS TO FALL
YOU CAN'T
STOP IT AT ALL
NO ONE HAS EVER
HAD CONTROL
OVER THIS WORLD
DON'T YOU KNOW
CAUSE IF IT WILL
IT WILL
AND IF IT WON'T
IT WON'T
IF IT DOES IT DOES
YEAH IF IT DON'T
IT DON'T
LIFE IS NOT ALWAYS
SO SMOOTH
AND MURPHY'S LAW
IS GONNA RULE
CAUSE IF IT WILL
IT WILL
AND IF IT WON'T
IT WON'T
IF IT DOES IT DOES
IT DOES
IF IT DON'T
IT DON'T
NO ONE HAS EVER
HAD CONTROL
OVER THIS 'A WORLD
DON'T YOU KNOW
