A Pedestrian's Lament




I've always feared  car drivers
And I fear them still
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle

I have lived a long life
And I hope much longer still
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle
Or roller blades, or roller blades

I've been missed so often
And I hope I always will
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle

I've learned just how to dodge them
And that's a vital skill
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle
Or roller blades, or roller blades

I have lived a charmed life
And I hope I always will
But If I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle

I've always feared car drivers
And I fear them still
But if I ever get run down
It'll be by a bicycle
Or roller blades, or roller blades
