My Mind Running Amuck

The Noble Savage wonders about the meaning of certain sayings.
Well I’m here to clarify
I love a challenge of this little ole fertile mind
So here we go with my imagination running amuck.

To have your cake and eat it to
Now that is something to ponder
Cause if a cake is in my sight I’m going to eat it
Or maybe it could mean you can’t have everything your way?

Step on a crack and break your mother’s back
Now isn’t that a horror?
If in life you step on a crack, your poor mom would live in the hospital
Or she would tie you up and never let you out of the house?

Bad luck will come your way if you walk under a ladder
Now how many years is that of bad luck?
Cause when you walk under that ladder
The paint can falls on your head, you wind up with a concussion
Oryou walk around the ladder and the painter falls on your head?

Oh! Well! That's how the cookie crumbles
People and their food
Always referring to food, of course a cookie will crumble if you sit on it
Or trouble always comes your way, that’s life?

Life is a barrel of laughs
Now this meaning escapes me
Is it saying your laughing in a barrel
Or is the guy in the barrel hysterically laughing as he falls over Niagara
Falls?

Now here is your chance
Think of a saying and make a verse
Sit and ponder
Or laugh hysterically as you fall over Niagara Falls.

Love Bon-Bon
