City Boy - The Man Who Ate His Car lyrics

Desperate Dan was a solitary man, a loner He had a girl but I guess he'd just outgrown her It's hard to dig but he made his big decision Became the man who ate his car, collision They spread the news to every local station Come see the guy who swallows cars, sensation They said he couldn't digest it, but he just went ahead and undressed it Mechanic in a panic, oh what a state. He ate his meal full of steel from a plate. Munched his way into a million hearts as he ate the tires and the spare parts. Some guys do anything to be seen, on the screen, what a dream, its obscene. Now it's clear that his career took a wrong turn, the Golden Gate on a dinner date, Heartburn, heartburn, heartburn He's left the earth in a multi-berth Apollo Venus and Mars, the rest of the stars to swallow.
