The Lyrics
As I was parodying this, I was struck by the ability of each line in the OS to stand alone as an admonition or observation. It's not so much a song as a series of Zen/haiku-like rules for living. Unlike the parody.
On bike, as you ped',
Wear a helmet, the law said.
Sans helmet you might be dead,
Get it tethered onto your head
Dude, watch your bike!
Your bike's alloy-bred,
It is light; cranks are tight.
Don't want a spike in your head?
Get a helmet, the law said.
Dude, watch your bike!
Open your eyes,
You will spy on road, dead,
A deer cooked in the sun; got hooked
By a large trike; looks like flatbread.
Dude, watch your bike!
Wear a helmet, the law said.
Sans helmet you might be dead,
Get it tethered onto your head
Dude, watch your bike!
Your bike's alloy-bred,
It is light; cranks are tight.
Don't want a spike in your head?
Get a helmet, the law said.
Dude, watch your bike!
Open your eyes,
You will spy on road, dead,
A deer cooked in the sun; got hooked
By a large trike; looks like flatbread.
Dude, watch your bike!
