Rolling passed where I used to live many years ago,
I saw a white limousine stopping by,
I didn't know what was happening,
but I went there to see.
A Coruña, my city those years,
in front of the "Chaplin Cinemas"
the "Black Panther" made her
limousine to be stopped in the middle of nowhere to sign autographs before the concert.
Mrs Tina Turner went out
from the car in the middle of the road so humble.
Mrs. Tina Turner had a concert for one day, but many people didn't have the chance to be there because there was no space.
She didn't mind to stay and give another concert for us to enjoy for free.
Mrs. Tina Turner I've been blessed by chance,
while you were rolling down the street.
So nice you stopped by my door when you were rolling by.

Happy birthday, dear Josephine,
The traveler hires the driver;
Riding in a black limousine
Brings much thrill to the passenger.

You've called the Preacher and set the date,
and someone's baking a wedding cake.
Together you went shopping for the ring,
"Don't forget the Limousine."
The bride's maids and flower girls were chosen by hand,
and your Daddy's hired a wedding band.
He's a handsome man you're a sweet young thing,
"Don't forget the Limousine."
The bridal shower was best of all,
You and the girls had a ball.
They gave you gifts fit for a Queen,
"Don't forget the Limousine."
Your Mother asks are you happy dear?
as she brushes away one tiny tear.
You're about to experience your childhood dream,
"Don't forget the Limousine."
You're at the altar the time has come,
when two are united and become as one.
You pinch yourself it's not a dream,
Thank God and Five Star Limousine.

A funny thing happened
on the way to my wedding
the white limo picked me up as scheduled
along with sister and mom all dolled up
My sister found a stash of the cutest
mini bottles of champagne
and we had to give them a try
so told the chauffeur
to take the scenic route
We were warm and giggly
till the supply finally ran out
we ended up being a little late but
I knew my promised one would understand
It never occurred to me that
with each passing minute
he might think I would leave him
hanging at the altar
and simply not show up
Of course I’m kidding
we drank that champagne fast enough
that we weren’t late at all

Bubba’s Limousine
By Elton Camp
Bubba made his living as a car thief
But the latest one brought him grief
For he saw a good chance one day
Took it from the governor’s driveway
The chauffeur had left the keys inside
In a limousine, Bubba never had a ride
It was the most elegant car he’d seen
He grinned as he drove the fine machine
Bubba messed up and he could tell it
No buyer found when he tried to sell it
A limousine is far too easy to identify
And a vehicle title he couldn’t supply
“They’re cowards, but I ain’t afeared.
That’s the silliest thing I’ve heared.”
Though in a house trailer he does reside,
Bubba now has a limo parked alongside
So when Bubba drives to the beer store,
He gets a lot more respect than before
And now he has room for all his clan
He likes it a lot better than his old van

My Limousine
By Elton Camp
I want you all to know I have a stretch limousine
In a mere little sedan I simply refuse to be seen
Some things in life will show others what you are
One of them is your house, but especially your car
I pass on the road, and want envious heads to turn
My limo will, the unwashed masses, respect earn
And whenever it is on some day trip I have gone,
I sit in the back and enjoy a bit of my Grey Poupon
To those of your who, in a limo have never ridden,
The pleasures of wealthy people remain well hidden
So, if it is just some mere tradesperson that you are
You’ll never be able to own a limo as fine as my car
Is this a snob speaking? Perhaps, but for an alternate
interpretation, go to the following::

Slashed lines’ frequency extends
Neon-freckled wormhole ride
Unstable tide rocks the set
Slashed lines’ frequency extends
Ivory starlight, synthetic decay
Shape distorting abyssal cry
Slashed lines’ frequency extends
Neon-freckled wormhole ride
