Car trouble that I had today been stuck on the express freeway
I'll have to call for Triple A 'cause I'm in deep dispair

In my fuel chamber there's some sticky goo
Now my only engine is turning blue

Pushed the car to the side of the road
A couple of the pipes are about to explode
The battery's had time to corrode
So hopefully, soon I'll have it towed 'cause

Underneath my hood things are startin' to boil
Got a gas cap made out of used tinfoil
Coming from my tailpipe is castor oil

I need about four spare wheels
The paint job is beginning to peel
Wave goodbye to my automobile 'cause now I'm really scared

In the car I skidded across the blacktop
Later on I'll sell it to a local chop-shop

Ride along on my daily commune
Now it looks as if it was the star of "Dune"
Hope somebody gets here soon
Or else I might be here all afternoon, 'cause

On the interstate, my car's on it's deathbed
Pieces falling off, down to the size of a moped
Should have bought that dumb Volkswagen Beetle instead

Car trouble that I had today
I hope someone takes this junk away
It's no vehicle protege' 'cause it needs intensive care

Can't take it anywhere that it stays in one piece
Everything is covered with a film of grease
Soon it will be taken by the police
