With your arm around your sweet one, in your Oldsmobile .."

The smoke from the tires and the twisted machine..."

A hole in the hood of a yellow Corvette..."

"Tengo un Suburban blanco del 72 al que no sube nadie de la familia. Mis coches siempre han sido humillantes para los niños. Este es como un motel, y se quejan de eso. Yo digo, 'Estais locos. Podríais vivir dentro de este coche!".
