Story Behind The Song
I got an email from broadjam last week that some rental car company was looking for a song, and I didn't have anything else to do.
Song Description
A Family's Rental Car Experience
(Music is to be sung by an off camera music group, while the family reacts to their different experiences in the process of finding the right company and the right car, as the video cuts to the different scenes.)
Measure 1
A happy family, (so far), has made arrangements for a rental car at an inferior rental agency. They arrive at the agency eager to embark on their family outing.
Measure 9
From the beginning, they find that the experience is not going to be as easy as they thought.
Measure 17
They experience treatment that they should not receive as customers.
Measure 25
There is a large buildup by the inferior car company to an inferior product. (An old beat up car.) They stand in shock at what they are being offered! (Even the family pet falls over and plays dead in disbelief!)
Measure 33
The family comes to the realization, as they stand in disbelief, that they should have gone to the superior rental company to begin with.
Measure 37
The music becomes a little faster and more grandiose as they start to sing the praises of the superior car company. Meanwhile, the video cuts to the superior car company showing the vast difference in quality of service.
Measure 54
The family is driving away, happy with their new car, and drive into the distance to a grand musical finale!

Lyrics
A sweet deal has been made
Reservations are paid
To Grandmother's house we go
But now here comes the pitch
And the bait and the switch
How long will this take? We don't know!
"Take a seat in the hall"
"We're out to lunch right now"
"Be right with you, when we get back"
"But It'll be worth the wait"
"You can anticipate"
"Your 1983 Pontiac!"
We should have gone to ----
Where consistent commitment to customer service
Is always first at ----,
Quality vehicles, price match guarantee
----, -----, -----
Now the kids are excited
(Even Fido's delighted)
Safe and happy in our new rental car
Excellent service
No need to be nervous
Rent with ----- and you'll go far
