Fast Cars, Slow City

Contributed by phildel on Monday, 7th October 2002 @ 08:15:00 AM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry



My uncle has a ferrari,
Red and boy can it go,
Although we've only seen it
Exceed 20 on Grand Turismo...

It takes corners like a puma,
Hugs each slope and drop,
We know this cos they showed us
A demo film in the shop.

You see, this is London,
It's always faster to walk,
In fact you'd make more progress,
In a boat made out of chalk.

Nevertheless you get them,
Those like my uncle who try to be "bad"
He tells me sometimes "it was worth it"
(My uncle can't help being mad)

He's convinced his beauty
Awards him with womens smiles,
Still, in 30mins, it only does 10
And that's 10 metres, not 10 miles.
