The Lyrics
It's alright if you jump it
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you drivin' away, honey
I get the feeling you won't
There is no sense in repairing
You'll go nowhere today
Laughing beside you, cause you drive a Daewoo
Spent all you have left to pay
Baby, breakdown... Go ahead and sell it to me
Breakdown... Honey, park it for the night
Breakdown... Not starting there, can you see?
Breakdown... It's not right... It's not right...
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you drivin' away, honey
I get the feeling you won't
There is no sense in repairing
You'll go nowhere today
Laughing beside you, cause you drive a Daewoo
Spent all you have left to pay
Baby, breakdown... Go ahead and sell it to me
Breakdown... Honey, park it for the night
Breakdown... Not starting there, can you see?
Breakdown... It's not right... It's not right...

Nice job.
MrMacphisto - checked out your "Author's" page because I liked your writing style and the pacing, syllable and accent matching you did on the other song. This one is very solid, too. 5-5-5. Unfortunately this was only other song on your list where I know the original song. I think your stuff deserves more looks that it appears to be getting. Maybe some folks who know the originals to your other parodies will take a look if you get A FEW MENTIONS HERE IN THE COMMENTS SECTION....HE'S A GOOD WRITER...CHECK HIM OUT...THANKS...
