The Accident (Things Could Be Worse) |
| Last night I saw an accident |
| On the corner of third and green |
| Two cars collided and I got excited |
| Just being part of that scene |
| It was mrs. |
| tom walker and her beautiful daughter |
| Pamela, was driving the car |
| They got hit by a man in a lite blue sedan |
| Who had obviously been to a bar. |
| They dont know how lucky they are |
| They could have run into that tree |
| Got struck by a bolt of lightning |
| And raped by a minority. |
| It was a four way dilemma |
| We all arrived the same time |
| I yielded to the man to the right of me And he yielded it right back to mine |
| Well, the yield went around and around and around |
| Till pamela finally tried |
| Just then the man in the light blue sedan |
| Hit pamelas passenger side. |
| Pamela hit her head on the mirror |
| Mrs walker got a bump on the knee |
| The man hit himself in the face and said |
| «why does this happen to me? |
| «The neighbors came out |
| And they gathered about |
| Saying «hey! |
| who hit who anyway? |
| «And the police arrived at a quarter to five |
| And pronounced all the victims «okay». |
