We keep ourselves afloat by simple rules
Each country keeps a common time and date
Forget this and they’ll feel you are a fool
We need our clocks, we need a brief schedule
We need a phone or watch so we’re not late
We keep ourselves afloat by simple rules
However we may get obsessed and cruel
Moderation is a pleasant state
Forget this and you’ll feel you are a fool
We do not live in prison,unlike school
We need our inch of freedom,life’s not fate
We keep ourselves afloat by simple rules
Don’t be a wooden puppet or a tool
The frame, the rules allow us to create
Forget this and you’ll feel you are a fool
Flex the rules, it;s easy to stagnate
Ask for pardon, love will be your mate
We keep ourselves afloat by simple rules
Ignore this and you’ll learn you are a fool
