The Lyrics

I hear you're wanting some new wheels
I thought your little Scion was doin' great
I guess you just convinced yourself it's underweight
I hope you have a change of heart...

Rikki don't buy that Hummer
Have you lost your ever-lovin' mind?
It would seem your discernment has declined
Rikki don't buy that Hummer
Think of how your money's spent
You might use it for something better
Like food and rent

It's such an ugly beast, you must admit
You could go out driving and go off-road
Just how practical does that seem, I don't know
I hope you have a change of heart...

Rikki don't buy that Hummer
Have you lost your ever-lovin' mind?
It would seem your discernment has declined
Rikki don't buy that Hummer
Think of how your money's spent
You might use it for something better
Like food and rent

(Instrumental)

I know you want an S-U-V
But not the size of Tennessee
I hope you have a change of heart

(Chorus)

Rikki don't buy that Hummer ( x3)
