Loved the parody, hate the car ... sounds like the '71 Toyota Corolla that was my very 1st brand new car, except that pezzo di merde was like that from the moment I drove it off the lot. Last yellow car I ever bought. :-)

Thankfully, I've never owned a junker, but then again, I didn't have a car in high school and college. Take this $555 as a down payment on a used Accord.

a wonderful anthem that i have occasion to croon too many times

Love old cars, and old car parodies..very nostalgic.

I CARn't help but suggest you take the 555 bus I am driving, Guy.

Stan - If I were using your Italian phrase in a mob parody it would be efficiently whittled down to one word - "Strunzo". I've heard that word used on The Sopranos. And speaking of yellow cars - An Air Force buddy in Japan was a New Yor-Rican. He told me that he too would never again own a yellow car. He lived in NYC and he was constantly being hailed by people thinking his car was a taxi. Thanks for your comment and attention.

McKludge - I'll pass on the Accord. I drive a Jeep, thanks.

Alvin - It is a catchy OS. Do you croon it often? This week is my first attempt at doing parody on the "Blondie" group. . There isn't a lot of "Blondie" parodies out here and I've written a few just in case I wish to enter Artistry Round 37 of the messageboard comps featuring songs performed by "Blondie". I have one more finished that I will publish and then decide if I want to enter one of them or maybe write another and then try to decide. I have until the 20th to decide to decide or not. I don't know which is worse - procrastionation or indecision but I'll decide to decide that when I can get a round to it. Thanks buddy.

Farce - You sir are the king of nostalgia on this site and I consider this quite a complement from you. And you know that nostalgia is not what it used to be - or is it? Can't tell when you write it because is done so well. Thanks friend.

Pip - Is the 555 the "Mass Bus Interface" where you ride it to church or is it the "Universal Cereal Bus" that runs at breakfast time? Just please don't toss me under it. Thanks.

Guy, capsico, ma perlomeno nel'italiano com' é parlato in Italia, credo che vuoi dire "stronzo," non "strunzo." Ma forse le mafiose di strada qui negli Stati Uniti -- l'ogni una "testa di merde" -- non sanno la sua propria lingua. :-)

Stan - yeah and until I was about 10 years old I thought my name was 'Testa Duro". pero "testa di merde" essere solo mio diminutivo. Ciao e grazie mio paisan.

old cars are like Horses . . . they have character, sir Guy; I like this ditty very much!

M'lady Old wines are called "vintage" - Old cars are called "Classic", and me - I'm just a character. Thanks for your visit on my page today. My day is brighter now.

story of my life...FIX MY OWN? Surely you jest.
