I'm gonna tell you 'bout the car that I just bought.
It's that Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot.
Well, I'm gonna tell you 'bout the car that I now own.
Well it doesn't go nowhere, it just stays all alone.
You know, I like it.
You know, I like it a whole lot.
Well, that's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot.
My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot.
You know, I like it.
You know, I like to watch it rot.
I'm gonna tell you 'bout a car you'd best not buy.
The brakes'll fall off and you will sigh.
I'm gonna tell you 'bout a car that you won't like.
You had best stay home, sir, better take your bike.
I like it. I like it a lot.
Because it's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot.
My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot.
You know, I like it, though, yes, I like it a lot.
Well, I'll meet you at seven in the parking lot.
We can all just stand by my car, you know, and watch it rot.
Well, I'll see you about seven, sir, don't be late.
We'll stand there and watch my car vegetate.
You know, I like it.
You know, I like it a lot.
Well, go ahead and buy it, don't listen to me, go ahead and do it.
You'll have it home five minutes and you'll know you blew it.
See, the brakes are made of glass and tires are made of vinyl.
You'll want to take it back find out that all sales are final.
You know, I like it, though.
I like this car a lot.
My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it's there in the parking lot.
It's my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot.
Well, you know, I like it.
I like it a lot.
