Lightning never strikes twice

"Lightning never strikes twice" is a song by LorD and Master from the album Decimus. The idea behind the song is that if you repeat a process while changing a variable, the result will be different. Thus, lightning never strikes twice (in the same place). Though this concept is scientifically accurate, it is patently not scientifically accurate that lightning never strikes in the same place twice. Lightning rods, high buildings and vegetation and so on, are often struck by lightning multiple times, so before anyone begins to criticise the scientific accuracy of the lyric, please note that it is a metaphor. We thank you.

Lyrics

You think you're alone
Don't be afraid
You think you're running out of time
But plans are laid

You've learned from your mistakes
So take my advice:
Don't repeat the situation
Lightning never strikes twice

Lightning never strikes
In the same place twice
Lightning never strikes
In the same place twice
Lightning never strikes
In the same place twice
Lightning never strikes
In the same place twice

Come into the sun
Burn off the sadness
Just take my hand
And join the madness
