Car Wash Disco
By: Noah Eaton
4/2/04

My Chevelle is swell,
she prowls the highway like a gazelle,
she's got 150K under her belt,
my three-door coupe,
could use one coat or two,
so come on in,
don't forget your beach towel!

Beat the heat,
come on down to our little retreat,
and feel free to wet your whistle!
Car Wash Disco!

Car Wash Disco!
Car Wash Disco!

Salad days,
need to be fresh and green,
so give your face a hot wax,
and let your smile come clean!

I'm ready for a good time,
put my heart on roller-on demand,
triple polish my mind,
annoint my soul in turtle wax...

Onward through the mitter curtains,
onward through the foam applicator,
onward through the rinse arch,
onward through the scrubbers...

Beat the heat,
come on down to our little retreat,
and feel free to wet your whistle!
Car Wash Disco!

Soak it up, love sponge,
you won't be needing those rubber gloves,
just let your hands do the work,
"Wax On, Wax Off!", now it's your turn!
Lay it all on everything,
lay it all on everything,
cause when you lay it all on everything,
it makes the world,
shinier and shinier and shinier and shinier!
Spin your heart like a mylar pinwheel,
spin your heart like a mylar pinwheel
(Initiate the garden hose full-blast,
and don't skimp on the spray wand!)
Spin your heart like a mylar pinwheel,
spin your heart like a mylar pinwheel
(Hey Mr. Bubbles,
you're looking sharp today!)

(Ha-ha, you really want to have some fun,
I challenge you to a full-service waterloo!
Soak me silly, I dare you,
hey, hey, you got me good there!)

My Chevelle is swell,
she prowls the highway like a gazelle,
she's got a 150K under her belt,
my three-door coupe,
could use one coat or two,
so come on in,
don't forget your beach towel!

Beat the heat,
come on down to our little retreat,
and feel free to wet your whistle!
Car Wash Disco!

Car Wash Disco!
Car Wash Disco!

(There's nothing but wet, summertime fun,
plus the admission is always free,
down at the Car Wash Disco!)

That's a cute one bubbling from you, Noah.  It sounds fun, especially in this heat!

Now that's the kind of bubble bath that my car "Millicent" deserves!
She'd be purring down the highway after being pampered like that!

Love your spirit and zest for life!

As you surely know, treat your car right and he/she will treat you well in return!
