The Lyrics

after 3 fords, 3 gmc's a hornet, a sunbird, a p.t cruiser, and a ford pinto wayy back in the day, I'm finally off the domestic companies. sorry boys, you brought this one yourselves.
I bought a pinto,
safari too,
a p.t cruiser,
a buick too
they started rusting and there's nothing I could do

I liked the colour,
my payment's down,
a new toyota
a beauty found
at least it starts when there is no one else around

I have a picture, I saw a picture,
a chrysler salesman called to say come on down
my new mechanic, said he would fix'er
if I was stupid, and maybe richer than hell
you kept on turning out, the crap abounds I'm calling in, the car I've found
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so


no flex, no bug, this time no fibbin
this one will be so new, and baby it's parked
everyone on tv says a new ford ranger
but mechanics say don't even try, it's danger.. everyone..

I have a picture, I saw a picture,
a chrysler salesman called to say come on down
my new mechanic, said he would fix'er
if I was stupid, and maybe richer than hell
you kept on turning out, the crap abounds I'm calling in, the car I've found


I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so
I'm buying japanese oh yes I'm buying japanese I really think so

Hell, they're not even all that foreign; many a "Japanese" car is made right here in the USA in transplanted factories. About the only money going to foreigners is the CEO's salary, and sometimes that guy lives here too.
