That Damn Gas Can

i look at these gas prices today and they make it hard to laugh when 10 dollars gets me a quater tank but 20 wont get me half so all my other expenses i have i must put off to the last after running around paying other bills once again i'm out of gas therefore i pull into the station where i dam near faint when i see that 20 dollars only puts 5 gallons in my tank i need to start riding a bike but i have too far to go so i end up staying home alot cause i cant afford the petro i remember when gas was 94 cent back then we were really spoiled now it doesnt make any sense the price they put on oil why could'nt i have been an oil tycoon or an arabian king then the last thing i would worry about is the price of gasoline as for now i think that electric car has found itself a new fan for this is the last time you see me walking !! with that damn gas can
