The Law of Common Sense
| [Verse 1] They say there's a rule for every move A book for every fight But I’ve got a map that’s written in dirt Not in black and white A road that bends A wind that howls And common sense My guiding light [Chorus] Oh The law of bloody common sense The one they always seem to miss It don’t take robes It don’t take books Just a heart A gut And this Oh The law of bloody common sense [Verse 2] I’ve seen men argue the sun won’t rise While standing in its glow They’d fight a tree for casting shade And swear it doesn’t grow But the earth keeps spinning Quiet and slow Doesn’t need to tell them so [Chorus] Oh The law of bloody common sense The one they always seem to miss It don’t take robes It don’t take books Just a heart A gut And this Oh The law of bloody common sense [Bridge] You can quote your rules Your codes Your verse Turn a good thing bad A blessing to curse But when it’s all gone And the dust has fled What’s right will whisper Not shout in your head [Chorus] Oh The law of bloody common sense The one they always seem to miss It don’t take robes It don’t take books Just a heart A gut And this Oh The law of bloody common sense |
