PRICE OF GASOLINE

 

I've been driving a mid-sized car

I never hurt anyone

Is that a fact?

Is that a fact?

Is that a fact?

Is that a fact?

 

The price of gas keeps on rising

Nothing comes for free

Make like a stone make

Make like a plant make

Make like a stone make

Make like a plant

 

I can tell you how this ends

 

We're gonna win this

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

 

With spades and truncheons

Guns and trowels

That is how the war will be won

Just swat the fly just

Just swat the fly just

Just swat the fly just

Just swat the fly

 

Taking care of cars and bodies

Nothing ever comes for me

The ghosts are here the

The ghosts are here red

Red white and blue red

Red white and blue

 

I can tell you how this ends

 

We're gonna win this

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

We’re gonna win…

 

We're gonna win this

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

We're gonna win this

(more, more, more, more)

We’re gonna win
