Fancy Cars

from Let's Be Happy! by CelloJoe

lyrics

fancy cars we're driving fancy cars
while there's starving kids in lands a far
air's so polluted we'll buy it in jars
or maybe fly a spaceship to colonize mars..

wanna get there faster
we're slaves and cars are master
take it to the shop
there's one for every cop

paved over dreams
for expensive machines
and if you couldn't tell
we're livin in automobile hell

fire and brimstone in every engine
hang on yo could i have your attention
cause here's a little something i'd like to mention
cars'll kill quick so drive with care
speed is a trick the tortoise beats the hare
cars'll kill quick so drive with care
speed is a trick the tortoise beats the hare

i see you in your truck
you don't even give a hoot
stuck in traffic
i take a breath and i feel sick
because of...
fancy cars we're driving fancy cars
while there's starving kids in lands a far
air's so polluted we'll buy it in jars
or maybe fly a spaceship to colonize mars..

every day i almost die
choking on fumes i begin to cry
what happened to this place?
how did I get stuck in this rat race?

we drive to work and work to drive
we drive to work and work to drive
we drive to work and work to drive
we drive to work and work to drive

gotta pay the bills so a lot of oil spills
gotta pay the bills so a lot of oil spills
gotta pay the bills so a lot of oil spills
gotta pay the bills so a lot of oil spills

fancy cars we're driving fancy cars
while there's starving kids in lands a far
air's so polluted we'll buy it in jars
or maybe fly a spaceship to colonize mars..

please drive safely or not at all
don't drive crazy ride a bike
