Parody Song Title:

"Bankbreak Chrysler"

Parody Written by:

Patrick McWilliams

The Senate and the House of Representatives, whose collective engineering skills couldn't produce a Pinewood Derby car, let alone a Soapbox racer, have voted to dictate the product mix of the US auto industry for the next 20 years, with no regard whatsoever to consumer preferences. But hey, if they can vote for cars to get better mileage, why not start with mine?
Since the Congress voted
And George Bush signed the bill
My car just gets 10 mpg
In neutral, rollin' downhill

It keeps on guzzlin'
Just keeps on guzzlin'
Pays no attention to the law

The engine's got eight sparkplugs
The axle's slightly bent
It rolled off the assembly line
When Ron was President

It keeps on guzzlin'
Just keeps on guzzlin"
Pays no attention to the law

My hand is on the nozzle
The gas flows in the tank
The numbers keep on spinnin'
As I'm drainin' out the bank

It keeps on guzzlin'
Just keeps on guzzlin'
Pays no attention to the law

If a vote can raise the mileage
As the politicians tell
Maybe they can vote my car
A CD player as well

It keeps on guzzlin'
Just keeps on guzzlin'
Pays no attention to the law

Just as your car pays no attention to the mileage law, Congress pays no attention to the law of supply and demand. Very well done, Patrick.

My grandPaw had a '57 DeSoto, Fireflite . . . it had push buttons for the gears!! But it only got 8-mpg!! I believe Eisenhower was in office, as it was Pre-Kennedy! That car was soooo pretty!!
