Lord won't ya buy me
A Mercedes Benz,
That's how the song started,
And my dreams begin.

I bought a Porsche
The car of my dreams
Got quite a "bargain"
Or that's how it seemed

An ad-on my TV
That works on all cars
Inspections for free
The place wasn't far.

They had quite a jingle
From the Burger King song,
I'll post it for you
It ain't very long:

"Lift the hood and pull the wires,
Jack it up and check the tires
Any way ya want it you can have it your way."

They checked out my engine
They said it's a mess,
Needs a transmission
And then here's the rest,
The brakes they won't stop you
Your steerings torn up
Your rear end is leaking
Ya need a new clutch.

It was the car of my dreams
But I think I'm now ready,
To burn up my Porsche
And buy a cheap Chevy.

Oh, but a cheap Chevy isn't near as good of a chick magnet, as a Porsche ~ even one that doesn't run! At least you could park it in the parking lot of a mall and draw the babes to you ~ with no effort of your part! Let the beauty of the Porsche do the talking for you! It would work for me!

I just had an idea! Have you ever thought of buying a vintage Viper or a Ferrari! I hear they will even attract a super model!

Loves 'n Laughs,

Toerag,

You are doing the right thing.  That car's a mess.  For a nominal fee, I'll gladly take it off your hands.

Great work on the poem
