I'm looking for adventure.
Shall I climb a craggy cliff?
Shall I sail the Bering Sea
In a leaky balsam skiff?

Shall I swim with alligators
In a murky jungle slough?
Parachute out of a space ship?
Chug-a-lug a witch's brew?

No. If risk is what I'm after,
I'll have my renezvous with fate
Among drivers with their car phones
Over on the interstate.
