Cos You Can
It’s of no use to beast or man You simply do it ‘cos you can It’s not exactly like a dare You simply do it ‘cos it’s there
Like trying to fill our green bin Even when the plants don’t need a thin Or counting all the cats I spy Tho’ there’s no rational reason why
Catching an early train to the sea As it’s direct unusually Riding each Swindon path and road Because they’re close to our abode
Or some will walk up a big hill For it beats just standing there still Ordering things in a neat line When as they were would have been fine
It’s of no use to beast or man You simply do it ‘cos you can It’s not exactly like a dare You simply do it ‘cos it’s there
