What’s wrong with these people

Are they insane

I don’t care who won the car race

They’re not even cars

I mean it’s so inane

Then there’s climate change

What’s the deal

There’s no feel

Shouldn’t they be eating cake somewhere

Down at heel

You don’t own a Ferrari

Or an Aston Martin

What the hell is an Aston Martin

Just another snake sliding through traffic

Just another diamond to enthral

Added weight to make you crawl

Trophy for the wall

Just another burden for the poor

To adore

Hope for

Roar — go hard-core

Pedal to the floor

To die for

Thunderstruck

O right — that’s what was in store >

Take it to the party and dream, sure

You just won’t be waking up with it, that’s all
