The Lyrics

the thing she staddles is bad
its rottin' away...yeah
the girl just pedals like mad
and don't make headway
she's got a rickety bike
she's got a rickety bi-yi-yike
she's got a rickety bike
beyond repair

she's ridin' perilously
through streets in the town...yeah
the chain keeps slippin' off, see ?
and falls to the ground
she's got a rickety bike
she's got a rickety bi-yi-yike
she's got a rickety bike
she's got no spare

i don't know why she's ridin' that bike
it doesn't work right
it doesn't look nice...to me
she hits the brakes and still it will fly
it doesn't stop right
she needs the brakes tight, you see

the spokes are bent up real bad
they've got too much play...yeah
i tried to straighten a tad
they stayed the same way
she's got a rickety bike
she's got a rickety bi-yi-yike
she's got a rickety bike
it makes me scared

she really don't care
she really don't care
she really don't care
