lyrics
Cars Love Wheels.
hit the gas, tires respond in kind
more often than not fasten seatbelts and find
traffic on roundabouts or in lines
so when we hit the straight-aways let them RPMs fly
firing on all 4, letting that engine shine
pedal to metal, of course, observing street signs
can’t go 0 - 60 in 6 seconds, flat!
keep ‘em at proper psi, nice & aligned
on the move, let them spin
go where they’re going, just as you’ve been where they’ve been
the road beckons, even when the clearing is packed
compact, truck, or bus... it’s get there or bust
_____
cars love wheels
cars love wheels
cars love wheels
cars love wheels
_____
for best driving best know when to retire
barely getting by, need for change dire
more a matter of rekindle than resind
traveled on the gravel ‘til the tread got thin
on your marks, with a new 2 pair of 2 π r
front & back, perfectly matched. I require
white walls, when cruisin‘ round town square
in rotation on my white ‘n’ noir Country Squire
_____
so don’t bogart the blvd, don’t be lame in the lane.
don’t get an attitude on the avenue, don’t road rage, keep it sane
don’t compete for the street, be a good sport on the court
give some leeway on the freeway, don’t be be all it’s my way on the highway
give some space, not too bumper to bumper
tailgates push fate, give a lil’ more buffer
make sure to pump the stereo, and the breaks
whatever it takes, enjoy, for goodness sakes
