Bumper to bumper
Temper meets temper
Permanent fault
Ground to a halt
Red light
On your mind
Motorway
Underpass
Keep building
Thank you Henry

For every two babies
There’s a new motor
History’s bunk
Let’s put a trunk
Road through
Your village
Flyover
Orbital
Get me some wheels

Care for a lift, lad?
Here’s a free gift, dad
Step on the juice
See what she’ll do
Ninety, one hundred
Indicate
Overdrive
Such handy
Transportation

I’ll beg buy or steal for
That automobile, sir
Do me a deal
Who’s at the wheel?
Not me
Not you, sir
Born to run
Fun fun fun
You can’t catch me

Where do all roads lead?
Straight to the scrap heap
Any old iron
Song of the siren
Blue light
On your tail
Ambulance
First offence
That’s one less
Pedestrian

Stuff global warming
Where’s the free parking?
Car paradise
Lethal device
Our lives
In your hands
Toxic air
Acid rain
Let’s take a spin

Bumper to bumper
Temper meets temper
Permanent fault
Ground to a halt
Red light
On your mind
Motorway
Underpass
Keep building
Thank you Henry
