Lyrics
Big Car
Verse:
You have a big car
That you don?t need
You bully all the small cars
At illegal speeds
I'm sure you don't mean to drive like a dick,
But you do, cause you have to get there quick
Verse:
You have a big car
With a TV in the back
Is that so your kids don't
Act like brats?
I'm sure you don't mean to drive like an ass,
But you do, as you burn lots of gas
Bridge:
I'll just sing my song,
While you barrel along
Hope I don't interrupt
You enjoying your tax cut
Verse:
So you have a big car
And I don't
You'll fry the ozone
And I won't
I'm sure you don't mean to drive like a bitch,
But you do, well hell, at least you're rich
