Skyrocketing High Gasoline Price
SKYROCKETING HIGH GASOLINE PRICE
(Parody of “Afternoon Delight” by The Starland Vocal Band)
I noticed on my morning drive, Texaco’s a dollar and eighty-five.
That afternoon it occurred to me, it went up to two and twenty-three.
How long is this gonna last? We’re all getting pumped instead of gas.
Just thinkin’ ‘bout it makes my wallet light
Looking forward to a better unleaded price.
I can tell by the glow of the empty light,
This week I’m getting close to my mountain bike.
Skyrocketing high gasoline price. Gasoline price. Gasoline price.
I saved some cash but it’s a bumpy ride. Filled ‘er up with octane 85.
Prices went north and they won’t come back. The only diesel that moved south is Shaq.
Skyrocketing high gasoline price. Gasoline price. Gasoline price.
Should we drill into our wildlife or pop pimples for the oil inside?
So far Iraq has been a dud. Where’s all the oil ‘cause we’ve given blood.
We should get the middleman out of the way.
Make a car run on blood type B and A.
Skyrocketing high gasoline price. Gasoline price. Gas. Gasoline price.
