It Goes Without Saying - Lyndon Queripel

I was told a change was as good as a rest
So I decided to put it to the test
Just as a matter of interest
I changed my mind several times
Read a story between the rhymes
Even spared a buddy some dimes
Completely ignored speed limit signs
And parked on double yellow lines
Drank three bottles of vintage wines
A red, a dry white and a sweet
Which went to my head before my feet
Were able to sleep it off the street
The next morning I was discovered
Over dressed and under covered
And when at last fully recovered
I then made a solemn vow
As I stand before you now
I wouldn't try to find out how
Certain sayings became beliefs.
