They don't go for that any more And if you look on all the times you had the automobile Aside from a few interesting saturday You got to that one of the nicest times of all Was a sunday afternoon, if you get the car You come the stairs, ker-clunk ker-clunk ker-clunk ker-clunk mom, dad, take the car, ha haaa day for a drive, I think I'll go out Ha haaa ha huuu

He used to it in here, right? And he would turn to his friends on the stage and say a drag? See, and the picked it up The light The changes to amber and Mr. Businessman decides to get very daring He the automatic transmission down into low He puts one on the brake Still holding the on the brake, in order to get that extra fast start He pulls the automatic down into low And pushes down on the five inches The car is hemorraging He knows, he knows, he knows he's gonna have to have another job He's not let THE KID show him up The light to green, Mr. Businessman is off
at the speedometer, 80, 90, 95, 96, 97, 98 miles an hour Looks out the window and The Kids not there You know there?
