Random arrangement of words

I was wondering whether there was any group of words that when arranged randomly within a sentence continue to make sense (even if just aurally). Something along the lines of:

I love you you know.

You know I love you.

Probably not but if anyone has any ideas or pointers that would be great>

Thanks

I have an outline understanding of "inversion" and there are many examples. But what i was thinking of was a wider and random thing akin to pulling words out of a hat.

Hi,

'Random' to me suggests
eg love know you you I
eg know I you love you

Anyway, do you have any further questions?
