Lyrics

RULE OF THUMB (Mike Borok)

People, gather ‘round, bow down to the rule of thumb
You don’t want to mess around with the rule of thumb
Listen close, the rule of thumb demands it
Give me a hand, I’m tryin’ to understand it

It’s the rule of thumb, everybody knows it
You can ignore it but you can’t oppose it
Watch out, here it comes – it’s the rule of thumb

No, you can’t deny the proof of the rule of thumb
See the universal truth of the rule of thumb
Count on it, don’t be afraid to try it
Revere and respect it, grasp it and apply it

It’s the rule of thumb, protect it and defend it
You can’t defy it, break it or bend it
Watch out, here it comes – it’s the rule of thumb

The rule of thumb, that’s what we’re under
Come and get in line, take a number
Feel it, reveal it, it makes an impression
You learn your lesson, then you pay for the session

It’s the rule of thumb, more eloquent than science
Flexes its fist and compels your compliance
Watch out, here it comes
Watch out, here it comes
Watch out, here it comes – it’s the rule of thumb
