I bought a '30 Ford wagon and we call it a woodie.
(Surf City, here we come)
You know it's not very cheery, it's an oldie but a goodie.

Wouldn't it need to be more cheery to really qualify it as a "goodie"?

(Spoken): 'Well, the last thing I remember, Doc, I started to swerve And then I saw the Jag slide into the curve I know I'll never forget that horrible sight, I guess I found out for myself that everyone was right'

Why They're Inappropriate:

When you're describing a horrible accident to the doctor, is this really an appropriate time to rhyme your words?
