Viv Wigley Poet Rhyme

Tesla

  Entered May 26th 2015

It's the future and it's here today, gonna change the way you drive
So come out the dark, reignite the spark and make your driving come alive

Tesla Tesla it's the best electric car
Tesla Tesla an hour's juice and you'll go far

If you're buying a new ve-hi-cle though you're really spoilt for choice
There is only one car that you want, so join with us and raise your voice

Tesla Tesla it's the best electric car
Tesla Tesla an hour's juice and you'll go far

Tesla's got no petrol engine so less element of risk
and the whole things whisper quiet, sounds just like an electric whisk

Tesla Tesla  A to B without a sound
Tesla Tesla  they won't hear you knock 'em down

Three hundred miles of driving pleasure when the battery's fully charged
And you get tons of free envelopes, 'coz your energy bills quite large

Tesla Tesla for the ultimate driving thrill
Tesla Tesla power output of Brazil

We have ironed out the problems folks, so it cannot be our fault
when overtaking buddies laugh at you when you car grinds to a halt

Tesla Tesla buy one now and knock 'em dead
But if you like the smell of gasolene get the new Mustang instead.

Keith Bickerstaffe December 19, 2015 at 12:39 PM I've always wanted a Mustang... fond memories of a girlfriend who owned one, and I remember digging her out of a snow drift once. Tesla sounds like a supermarket chain to me! BRAVO Viv! Best wishes, Keith Viv Wigley December 20, 2015 at 1:22 AM A man of taste, Keith, I see- it would be a '65 convertible or the '69 fastback for me. Thanks for dropping by, regards, Viv

Arthur Vaso August 28, 2015 at 11:39 PM LOL loved the last verse!!! Cheers Viv Wigley August 29, 2015 at 2:34 AM Thanks for blowing the dust off this one, Arthur. Regardless of environmental efficieny, I'd still rather have a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach1 Cobra Jet anytime. Or a 1970's Plymouth Barracuda with the 7.2 litre engine. I'm not fussy. Regards, Viv

Paul Callus July 19, 2015 at 4:53 PM Very entertaining jingle, Viv! The Maltese are still not convinced about electric cars! They love cars with a voooooom! Congrats on your win...well deserved. // paul Viv Wigley July 19, 2015 at 7:59 PM I have to agree, Paul, I almost got mown down by a new electric car, and it was disturbingly quiet. They're on about giving them an engine noise, which sort of defeats the object, I think. Regards, Viv

Skat A July 19, 2015 at 2:47 PM Viv, that's a cool JINGLE! CONGRATS!!!!! SKAT Viv Wigley July 19, 2015 at 7:57 PM Electrifying, if I say so myself. Thanks, Skat, Viv x

Eve Roper July 18, 2015 at 10:18 PM Viv,congratulations on your win, I was worried about the electric bill. Hugs Eve Viv Wigley July 19, 2015 at 12:08 AM Me too, I'm buying up stocks of batteries from our local Pound store. Thanks, Viv x

Tim Smith July 18, 2015 at 4:33 PM Hope they give you one for your efforts...congrats Viv Wigley July 19, 2015 at 12:07 AM I'll take a Mustang, Tim. Regards, Viv

Jan Allison July 18, 2015 at 1:40 PM very catchy Mr Vi many congrats:-) hugs Jan xx Viv Wigley July 19, 2015 at 12:07 AM Thanks, Jan, I may take up a job in advertising. After all, I am a Mad man. Viv x

Lindsay Laurie June 8, 2015 at 10:53 PM G'day Viv... great jingle mate, but does it represent Tesla or Mustang? Enjoyed - Lindsay Viv Wigley June 8, 2015 at 11:21 PM Well, Tesla initially, but I started nitpicking it toward the end. Personally I'd have a Mustang. I'm afraid neither would be any good to you, judging by your poems, so you'll have to treat yourself to a Holden Colorado- looks like the type of car you can drive up the wall to fix your TV aerial. Regards, Viv

Justin Worthy May 30, 2015 at 1:18 AM Hahaha...this was really funny! :) 7 Viv Wigley May 31, 2015 at 1:19 PM Cheers, Justin. Regards, Viv

Eileen Manassian May 26, 2015 at 1:26 PM :) Good one, Viv. An hour's juice and you'll go far....like how you did that bit. Good luck in the contest. :) Viv Wigley May 26, 2015 at 10:58 PM Thanks, Eileen, love 'n hugs, Viv x

Emile Pinet May 26, 2015 at 8:53 AM Your message is poetically expressed and politically correct, with a little humor thrown in for good measure. Well done. Emile. Viv Wigley May 26, 2015 at 9:00 AM Thanks for your comments, Emile, take care. Regards, Viv

Robert Lindley May 26, 2015 at 8:25 AM Love this one. I'll take the new mustang. I rarely ever attempt to sneak up on anybody using my car.. A7.... Viv Wigley May 26, 2015 at 8:58 AM Given the money, I'd opt for the '65 Mustang convertible and the '69 Mach I Cobra Jet fastback. With cars like that, you really need to tell folk that you're approaching. And you can be sure that they'll know when you're leaving. Thanks for dropping by, in a non-electric fashion. Regards, Viv
