Poetry: Cars

by John Young

Created on: May 27, 2007

Here I am standing on the road in the middle of the night
A proud 200 all gleaming and bright.
Me and my friend had some fun today
We beat a BMW we were off and away
We drove down the high street not trying to look cool
But I saw a chaved up Corsa I thought..what a fool!

As I passed a shop window I caught sight of my wheels
I got such a nice feeling you know how that feels
My friend is good to me he buys me nice things
Noisy exhausts, new seats and stuff he says blings

Although we have fun together my friend treats me fine
He cleans me and polishes me and my inside smells of pine
I sit here on my own and think of today
And how every time he left me he would look admiringly my way

So for now I'll wait here and be nice and quiet
But tomorrow on the motorway I'll be causing a riot
I'll cruise past the cars costing 10 times as much
And if they start crying I'll laugh and say."Hush"

We'll head out into the country in style and flair
And pick up my friends girl I think she's called Claire.
Then off we'll go to our favourite tune
And drive until night and the light of the moon

So here I am standing on the road in the middle of the night
A proud 200 all gleaming and bright.
