The Car Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Turn the key & warm up the vehicle
Window's foggy & I'm in my little bubble
Some are red, some are yellow
Black & blue & different colours
Mine is green
Let's go
Let's go
Let's go play footsie with the pedal
Get on the road
It glides underneath me
Yeah, it rides so sweetly
I love driving in my car
In my car I can see outside
I have wiped off the mirrors & they shine like glimmering glass
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no, is that you I see?
Take a left quickly
Green light, go
Red light, no
No matter on the yellow
It's so fun driving in my car
In my car I can do anything
Drive up & down the road
Maybe listen to the radio
I think I know this song
Light up a cigarette
Green light, go
Red light, no
No matter on the yellow
It's so fun driving in my car
Driving in my car
