The Lyrics

Not every mechanical failure is proof of a concerted effort to assassinate you. Maybe your car just sucks.
Don't be, don't be, don't be paranoid, you twit, "Somebody's after me!" you said
"My car's been sabotaged" you said, I say this to you as a friend
But you're being stupid, there's so many clues, so many signs
Your car's just failed on you, it always fails on you

Nothing here's nefarious 'cept for what you paid for this
Garbage on a four-wheeled frame, damn it, I made you go
On another rant, such crazy shit "It's the car salesman!" No
Just ripped you off, it's true, there's zero long game, dude

You want to show me truth? Just baloney
You have to face it: all you theories are just bogus
Your car is the problem, that's not hard to see
Just calm down, you'll see

Haven't kept it in good shape, ignored each bump and nick and scrape
You bought it for the cheapest rate, that's never a good sign
And deep inside, you know, you know, you know that your conspiracies
Are simply a denial flood, been down that road, it's sad to see

You cannot show me truth, just baloney
Truth: just a lemon

I initially mistyped "assassinate" up there as "assinate", which just sounds like a synonym for "enshittification" which I know was coined in regards to platform decay but you could probably make a case to it applying to other tech things like cars as well.
