The Lyrics

Yep, another parody about cars.
Just hear those car keys jingle-ing
Spine is tingle-ing too
Come on, it's awesome weather
For a joy ride along with the crew.

Outside the road is calling
And friends are hauling some brew
Come on, it's awesome weather
For a joy ride along with the crew.

Rev it up, rev it up, rev it up let's go
It's time for a show
Through neighborhood lawns we'll go.
Rev it up, rev it up, rev it up we're bored
Risk we can't afford
We're driving a path to some wrath
When my dad sees his Accord.

We'll take the streets before us
And race those who dare us, it's true
We'll make those street punks madder
In a joy ride along with the crew.

We'll leave our smoke behind us
And hope they don't catch us, adieu
I'll make those tires balder
In a joy ride along with the crew.

There's a lot of police cars tailing us today
We're all having fun just pressing our luck this way.
They're lined up as far as all our eyes are capable to span
If they catch us they'll be sure throw us all into the can.

So hear that engine screaming
From our careening, Vroom! Vroom!
Come on, it's awesome weather
For a joy ride along with the crew.

We'll put our lives in danger
As we piss off strangers, it's true
Come on, it's awesome weather
For a joy ride along with the crew.

Nice work, Scathe! "We'll put our lives in danger/As we piss off strangers", indeed. 5s.

(SOTM) Clever.

(SOTM) I actually thought this was about the horror-thriller movie, "Joy Ride," about these two idiots who play a joke on a trucker by having one guy impersonate a woman over the CB, and then when the trucker finds them out, he goes on a rampage. It stars Steve Zahn, Paul Walker, and Leelee Sobiesky. Anyway, this parody was even better than that, and the lyrics were hilarious. Not too many Christmas carols about some youthful dudes getting drunk and crashing their dad's Accord. Excellent job! 555

(SOTM) Loved the line about the Accord, especially since we have one. Are you and WMJ becoming our AmIRight Auto Mechanics now?

(SOTM) Alright...but you repeated "and a joy ride along with the crew" a bit too much.

(SOTM) Huzzah for car songs! However ... unless I'm mistaken, there are some pacing issues here. Great lines, so I won't dock you, but it does seem a bit awkward in places.
