I agree that it reads naturally, but when dealing with those kinds of sentences, they always need to be put into conditional form (A->B). Even when reading text the order of those words matters. Consider: "I'm going to die ... (gasp) ... if you don't grab me some Subway. I'm starving" The sentence is funny because the apodosis is misleading. Even thought that might be a valid narrative approach when writing a comedy, I don't think it's an appropriate coding one.
