Weird Al Yankovic - Dead Car Battery Blues lyrics

One, two, a-one, two, three, four

Well I, can't go to the park

I can't go to work

I can't do nothin'

I gotta stay in my house like a jerk

How come I always lose

My car has blown a fuse

Oh yeah

I got hydraulic fluid leakin' in my shoes

And the dead car battery blues

You know, can't visit my girlfriend

I can't go to school

I can't go anywhere

Gotta stay in my room like a fool

'Cause I got grease in my hair

My Belvedere's in disrepair

Oh yeah

I got hydraulic fluid leakin' in my shoes

And the dead car battery blues

So I, went to see my mechanic

He said, "Okay, now what is wrong"

I told him my car wouldn't start

He said, "This shouldn't take very long"

So he replaced all my plugs and my points

And he looked at my carburetor

He took out my engine and turned it around

And then seventeen hours later

He looked at my headlights and said

"Son, how long have these things been on"

I told him, "Oh, about three or four weeks"

He said, "Buddy, I know what's wrong"

"But I hate to be the one to give you the news"

"You got the dead car battery blues"

So now I, can't go to my office

Can't work on my job

I might as well lock myself up in my room

And live my life like a slob

How come I always lose

My Belvedere has blown a fuse

Oh yeah

I got hydraulic fluid leakin' in my shoes

And the dead car battery blues
