Mixed Metaphors

Don't mix your metaphors,
You'll say two things at once,
One minute you think you're talking 'bout life,
Like a ball that don't bounce,

Because you've always rolled with the punches,
Despite what people thought,
Serpico trying to live and let live,
Making the man angry he can't be bought,

King of the jungle, pride before a fall,
You think you can be true,
Until you find you're a ball in a maze,
The floor titling's not you,
I stand correct,
It's all saying the same,
Like Hume said, some act the grammarian,
Might as well play the rules and not the game.
