Soo many cars

The car the car the car

how far do I have to drive

in my car.

My little room on wheels

it seems so unreal

driving round and round

in my car.

It’s a strange little carriage

I keep it in me garage

I can’t make a move without it

It doesn’t want me

to ever doubt it

it’s undoubtedly remarkable

it’s become completely indispensable

while being entirely unsustainable.

According to some South American economist

fifteen miles an hour

is as fast as it should get,

otherwise we’re doomed.

So let’s set the speed limit lower

this won’t help the planes in the sky

but how do you want to die?

parked out and poisoned

or just getting there slightly slower.
