Greg Bohemen - Care For a Ride?

I am made of metal and I have got plenty of parts
I am made of so much shit that I do not know where to start
I come in many colours, one for every taste
I can take you anywhere you want, there is no time to waste
But if ever you are bored or I rack too many miles
Do not be afraid to switch me up because each year they make new styles
For now, as long as I am working you have no concerns
For I am your mean of transport which justifies the gas that I burn
Care for a ride
All worries aside
Come on do not be shy
Trade logic for pride
Care for a ride
Come on do not be shy
Care for a ride
Some people have many copies of me, they do not know when to stop
But what will you do when my fuel dries up have you even given it a thought
Because I will not be here forever, one day I shall be replaced
And the hogs running this industry will be marked as a disgrace
For they do not care about the future, ignoring warnings from the past
Do not care about the next generation too busy screwing over the last
So are we playing stupid or are we really blind
One day it will be too late to try and find a way to rewind
Care for a ride
All worries aside
Come on do not be shy
Trade logic for pride
Care for a ride
Come on do not be shy
Care for a ride
I want a hummer, I want a truck
Yes of course I need it what if I get stuck
It ain't for work, it is just for play
I got a lot of cash to spend, man, what can I say
I want a hummer, I want a truck
Yes of course I need it what if I get stuck
It ain't for work, it is just for play
I got a lot of cash to spend, man, what can I say
I got to compensate, I got to compensate
I got to compensate for something that is a little bit smaller
I am very handy, I will give you that, but am I really worth the price
The day we run out of fossil fuels, money will not suffice
For decades we have lacked the will although we have had the technology
So why don't we get together and switch to renewable energy
Because you are dependant to me like leaves to a tree, ironic analogy
We drill like there is no tomorrow, for the profit of economy
We still have a fighting chance although it may be slim
Stop pointing at your neighbour and realize the guilt is within
Care for a ride
All worries aside
Come on don't be shy
Trade logic for pride
Care for a ride
Come on don't be shy
Care for a ride
