Jalopies

An old man in Buffalo

Got toes of unwanted glow

He kicked the banger

On a cliff hanger

Waited for a truck to tow


Antique or dear jalopy

The bloke was on ecstasy

Smoked gum from his tyres 

Lit wreck with pliers

Failed his own carbon copy


When rescue came hands on deck

They had no clue who’s the wreck

Chevy was rusty

Owner smelled musty

So they took both by the neck


Pick up onto heart massage

Fogey to a near garage

The crew had a spliff

All had a quick whiff 

None wanted more sabotage
