The Lyrics
Since my husband ( Wild Man ) is a motorcycle enthusist; I have entertained the though of owing my very own motorcycle. Harley Davidson's current marketing target is, middle class suburban housewifes. TRUE! I don't exactly see it replacing the SUV, or the family minivan. That little voice in my head keeps repeating, " That's one ridiculous notion! " LOL!
{ reprise }
How much is that Harley in the window? ( vroom vroom)
The one with the shiny softtail
How much is that Harley in the window? ( vroom vroom )
I do hope that the Harley's on sale
{ verse 1}
I lust to take a trip I must warn ya
The mall is not far from my home
Life in the burb's is so hum-drum
Do tell where I plug in my phone
{ reprise }
{ verse 2 }
Think I'll want a little side car
To pick up my children from school
Don't think I'll be riding it too far
Oh my what a wise shopping tool.
{ reprise }
{ Verse 3 }
Thank you kind Sir for the lesson
Around tiny cones, I will take
With one little question I'm wrestling
Which is the clutch and the brake?
{ reprise }

I like the clutch and brake line...he he. 5's
Excellent Diva. But a prudent move whould be to learn the difference between the clutch and brake before you ever take that test ride. I used to be that way with flammable and inflammable until one day I learned the difference the hard way. Great parody.
I thought the funniest image was the one of trying to take a Harley round the cones... And what about the Harley rider's biggest fear: RAIN...
And if the sky's looking rather cloudy
I will leave my Harley at home
'To ride in the wet is not allowedy
Won't spend ten hours polishing chrome

Thank you! I like to write silly parodies, about new topics.
Nice work, Diva! I'm gonna give a perfect score.
Thanks TVOD, but I think you forgot to vote :)
Long may you run!
Looks like "Diva, My Wages" is coming true! Get yer motor runnin'... Chuckle chuckle smirk smirk.
Pat & Guy, I could easily see myself flunking the driving test! LOL!
Phil, We avoid inclimate weather whenever possable, and yes polishing a bike is a lengthy task. We've put more hours into cleaning the monster than riding!
Michael, I enjoy being a passenger. I doubt that my next big ticket purchase would be a motorbike.
TVOD, thank you for your kind comment.

TVOD, thank you for your kind comment.
Oh, I forgot to thank Neil Young. BTW: I'm a big fan of yours!
Div, I'd think that Peter Fonda would make a comment here. LOL!
LOL! Just an afterthought, WM . Do you think Henry and Mrs. Fonda could have chosen a more appropriate name for a son. Perhaps, they named him in jest!
Is this to be followed by "How much is that window in the doggie? (you break it, you pay for it and the collateral damage)" version? 5:th gear all the way.
Thanks for your comment, Know 1
Way ta drive it Diva! My dad was an avid motorcycle man who drove a Harley also and built his own 3/4 midget race cars and raced as a hobby. I grew up loving the mechanics of the engine. As a teen I had a boyfriend who built his own trike with a Corvair engine and that was a real thrill to rip around on that thing. Once it gets into your blood, it's there to stay. Hope you find a real nice one :-)
Thank you for your nice comment Smurf. Actualy I like the look of the 2003 V-Rod in silver, but I think it has too much power for a novice. If I ever did decide go for it; I'd probably start out with a Sportster. I was so pleasantly surprised to find that there so many nice people into the sport of motorcycling. Your right it does get into your blood. Trikes sound fun! I'll bet you guys are great together. WM has an Electra Glide Classic Touring. Very comfy. I'm not sure If I wan't to give up the "B"-seat yet . LOL!
(rated this earlier.) So, do you pick out just one basic black helmet to go with everything or a different one for each outfit or do you get one that goes with the bike? :) Nice job, Diva.
Thanks Melhi, and what great fashion advice. =)
Thanks everyone! I'm glad you all enjoyed this little ditty.
Great job Diva

Dive, you did a great job. you are by far the best out there..
=D Thanks !
Who messed up my comment? I was gonna say, 555.
This was a cute parody if I ever saw one! It gets a perfect score from me!
same here.
This song's better than the one about me. (4 + 1=5 stars)
Thanks everyone who recently left nice comments=)
