[To the tune of ‘KANSAS CITY’]
We picked up our new Peugeot on a Friday,
By Saturday we’d learned a thing or two.
‘Cause up to then we didn’t have an idee
Of what the modern car was coming to.
Seatbelts we were used to, but airbags were new,
The windscreen wipers started on their own.
Somewhere a computer is hidden out of view
And it’s even got its own car telephone.
Ev’rything’s up to date on our new Peugeot,
They’ve gone about as far as they can go.
You can turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat
With ev’ry kind of comfort this new car is quite complete
You can open boot & bonnet now and never leave your seat
They’ve gone about as far as they can go
Yes sir
They’ve gone about as far as they can go.
Ev’rything’s like a dream in my new Peugeot
It’s fast and smooth and quiet don’t you know.
The doors have central locking for the front and for the back
The agents will supply you fast with any parts you lack
You can drive it in a hillclimb or around a racing track
And push it just as fast as it will go
Yes sir
We’ll push it just as fast as it will go!
Driving is a dream in my new Peugeot
I pushed it just as fast as it would go.
The rev counter’s before me but I don’t know what it means
The tyres are fairly howling as the whole car sideways leans
I wonder if those flashing lights are real or in my dreams?
I think the cops may want me to go slow
Yes sir!
I’ve gone too fast in public don’t you know.
