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, hey 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 will it will, if it won't it won't) If it does it does, and if it don't it don't (If it does it does, 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 will it will, if it won't it won't) If it does it does it does, if it don't it don't (If it does it does, if it don't it don't) No one has ever had control over this old world don't you know, ain't it so? (If it will it will, if it won't it won't) (If it does it does, if it don't it don't)
