SSG Y11W46 How Many Roads? (A Driver’s Rant)

http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12501956

=====Version1=====A more 'reflective' version [pun intended] :P

How many roads must a man drive down
Before he admits he is lost?
How many times must his woman curse his name
Before giving up on the cause?
Yes, how many times must he pass the same sign
Before he sees what he saw?
Objects in the mirror closer are than they appear
Closer than they appear

How many texts must a teenager send
Sitting in the driver’s seat?
How many rear-view mirrors are used
For lipstick through puberty?
Yes, how many teens drive illegally?
Who would in their right mind gives them keys?
Objects in the mirror closer are than they appear
Closer than they appear

How many lanes must the seniors clog up?
Why must they drive so afraid?
How many times must they make us wait
Forming an angry parade?
Yes, and how many times do they block passing lanes
Why must we slam on the brakes?
Objects in the mirror closer are than they appear
Closer than they appear

How many accidents must rubberneckers cause?
Why don’t they watch where they go?
How many lanes must the trucker drivers take
Hauling oversized loads?
Yes, how much traffic must we all suffer through
To reach our humble abodes?
Objects in the mirror closer are than they appear
Closer than they appear

=====Original Version=====
How many roads must a man drive down

Yes, how many times must he pass the same sign
Before he sees what he saw?
Why do these idiots drive crazy speeds?
Could they even spell DMV?

How many texts must a teenager send
Sitting in the driver’s seat?
How many rear-view mirrors are used
For lipstick through puberty?
Yes, how many teens drive illegally?
Who would in their right mind gives them keys?
Why do these idiots drive crazy speeds?

It's a cute parody son. A friend in the UK calls them pastiches but I call them parodies. I know the assignment is to write all questions but I think it would be better to follow Bob than Dave on this and write "The answer my friend is ....." and insert your own creative punch line. Perhaps a different joke line in each verse. The questions deserve better humor.

Hi John,

I went for a non-question tag line that should be familiar to all drivers and gives it a similar message to Michael Jackson's song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5vz6iwV38U

Thanks for the listen and feedback. :D

James
