The Car Song |
| The weekend is the weekend |
| And it’s sunny in the park |
| I’ll stay here with my beer and fish and chips till it gets dark |
| I’ve got a lot of homework |
| But homework he can wait |
| I never start my homework till its already too late |
| My parents say think about your future and my teachers say the same |
| But it’s hard |
| When there’s a basketball game in the park |
| It’s 1998 |
| And everybody’s saying: |
| «Harry, you’re going to be a lawyer some day…» |
| It’s Monday bloody Monday |
| And there’s two things I forgot |
| I forgot to do my homework |
| And I’ve only got one sock |
| I’m halfway through a test |
| But I just can’t concentrate |
| I’m sitting next to Fontaine |
| I want to ask her on a date |
| I really want to start a conversation |
| But each time she walks past |
| I start choking on my pencil |
| And fall flat on my ass |
| I need to concentrate |
| I have to get this grade |
| Or I might fail to be a lawyer someday |
| BRIDGE |
| But just right now |
| Can’t think of anything better to do |
| Than just sit down at the piano and a write this tune |
| And maybe later |
| Maybe later in the afternoon |
| I’ll sit back and relax |
| And think of all the things I’m going to do… |
| Someday… |
| I’ll buy an old car |
| Someday… |
| I’ll get that car to start |
| Someday… |
| I’ll learn how to drive too |
| And then Someday… |
| Imagine all the things I could do |
| (That was 1998 now |
| Bring it forward to the present day now |
| Cause some things have changed |
| But some things never change) |
| The weekend is the weekend |
| And it’s sunny in the park |
| I’ll stay here with my beer and fish 'n' chips till it gets dark |
| I just saw Peter Parsons |
| Who used to be in my class |
| I always gave him wedgies cause I thought he worked too hard |
| He said, «Harry, life is great |
| I feel so happy these days |
| I’m a litigation lawyer |
| So I got it made |
| I’m going out with Fontaine |
| Rememer her from tenth grade? |
| I drive a Porsche so I can’t complain…» |
| Shit! |
| And look at me can’t think of anything better to do |
| Than just sit down at the piano and write this tune |
| And maybe later |
| Maybe later in the afternoon |
| I’ll sit back and relax and think of all the things I’m going to do… |
