The Lyrics
Someones car is on fire
Smelling senses liven in your nose
And smells of oil, petrol and black smoke
First reaction is run to the front door
Burning and incineration
Jaw drops to the floor
Cars on fire
Melted tire
Brake fluids steaming
Cars on fire
Premiums going high
Is there a good car shop here?
You want to react you just stand still, no
You can’t mend that car just phone the bill
And those that give insurance cant afford
An accident waiting to happen like you no more
Cars on fire
Left your lighter
On the hot engine
Cars on fire
Premiums rising high
Is there a good car shop here?
Go here
Cars on fire
F*****G Lighter
My head is hurting
Cars on fire
Alloys cost a mint
My new tires
Now must hire
Cars that look like bins
Cars on fire
Melted tire
Brake fluids steaming
Cars on fire
Premiums going high
Cars on fire
F*****G Lighter
And smells of oil, petrol and black smoke
First reaction is run to the front door
Burning and incineration
Jaw drops to the floor
Cars on fire
Melted tire
Brake fluids steaming
Cars on fire
Premiums going high
Is there a good car shop here?
You want to react you just stand still, no
You can’t mend that car just phone the bill
And those that give insurance cant afford
An accident waiting to happen like you no more
Cars on fire
Left your lighter
On the hot engine
Cars on fire
Premiums rising high
Is there a good car shop here?
Go here
Cars on fire
F*****G Lighter
My head is hurting
Cars on fire
Alloys cost a mint
My new tires
Now must hire
Cars that look like bins
Cars on fire
Melted tire
Brake fluids steaming
Cars on fire
Premiums going high
Cars on fire
F*****G Lighter

This song's on fire! Great parody as always, Gari! Seems like someone committed "car arson" on his/her car. Either someone sabotaged for faulty wiring or a bomb was set in that car. I remembered this movie Loaded Weapon 1 where Samuel Jackson yelled "Taxi", then the taxi explodes and Emilio Estevez says "It's gonna take a helluva lot more than a couple of car bombs to get us off of this case." Another great parody of a Rocky IV song. 555.
GREAT song! And you did wonders with it.
I use to go see John Cafferty play in the Jersey clubs, back in the day...
Thanks for the 5's Christie yeah I remember that film a parody of Lethal Weapon
Hi M Scotti how you been the song was very tricky in verse 2 not the most versatile song but I like it.
Cheers Both.
This parody reminds me of the time that my dad's new GMC (a premium brand of utility vehicles and trucks for those of you outside the US and Canada) pickup caught on fire and burned to nothing more than charred, warped steel when he and a friend were elk hunting about 10 years ago. He had to use my car (which he barely fit into) as transportation until he bought a new truck. Here are your 5s.
Thank You Andria interesting story how did the pickup catch fire, was it a Elk turned Arsonist LOL
Gari, I don't know for sure, but my dad, the GMC dealer and the insurance adjuster are in agreement that it was something to do with the fuel system. Therefore, it was probably an accident or a random event.
