precautions, against the inevitable

Figuring everything's inevitable is a lot
easier than taking precautions. You can't
take precautions anyway, not without

going around in a bad mindset
looking for trouble, it can
hardly be worth it sometimes,
and I've tried. A time or two!

I kept forgetting, so anyway
I don't really figure
everything's inevitable. But

pretending's a hell of a lot
easier than figuring out how to adopt
the kind of shitty outlook
precautions take. You need
to spot
the need, the risk
and implement them

precautions.

A pain. And
what if everything's
inevitable?
