Lemon Car

When you first saw the lemon car you liked the way it looked

and riding in the driver's seat made you feel pretty good

but now that it belongs to you it might not feel so fine

to turn the key when it won't start, no matter what you try.

Lemon car, very pretty, and it cost you quite a lot

but when you want it to go somewhere, the lemon car, it might not.

Lemon car, it's so pretty it might make you want to cruise

but riding inside it, you might get some real bad news.

Sometimes when you're driving you might hear some real strange sounds

and you don't know the causes but then someday, you might find out.

Other times when trying just to get around the bend

the steering doesn't work quite right and you don't know if it can.

Lemon car, very pretty, and . . .

One day you stopped at a red light, and when the light turned green

you put your foot down on the gas but the car could barely creep.

You could hear the engine but the wheels could hardly turn

and the only gear that seemed to work was shifting to reverse.

Lemon car, very pretty, and . . .
