Friday Caption Contest: 4×4 Lyrics Edition

Well, last week’s competition drew some very insightful entries - it seems that everyone from the President of the AA himself, right down to a small monkey from somewhere in the vicinity of Manchester wanted to see the AA President tarred & feathered. Judging the winner was extremely difficult, but in the end our panel of judges were unanimous in deciding that Glenn’s entry was head and shoulders above the rest:

“Tête à Text. Bringing a knife to a gun fight would be smarter.”

But well done to all of you.

For this week’s competition, we have something a little different - you have to come up with some poetry or song lyrics with which to educate the owner of this car, seen parked on a Whitley Bay pavement in early April:

… in mid-April (that parking ticket is probably for being on a single yellow line, rather than for obstructing & breaking up the pedestrian’s pavement surface with the car’s massive weight):

… and last night:

Write a song: The best verse / song lyrics for this week’s photos will win a prize that I know you’ll all want to see - Danny MacAskill performing a series of stunts over cars parked on the pavement where you live. I understand that to get a firm grip on the slippery surface of their paintwork, he’ll have to use steel-studded winter tyres . . .

Post your entry as a comment below - goo luck!

    I just took a ride in my silver machine, and I’m still feeling mean….

    I notice that he is always very considerate and folds his wing mirrors out of the way so that they will not inconvenience passing cyclists or pedestrians.

    One, Two, Three, Four.
    I’ve got a debate with Carlo.
    parks like an asshole
    I really think he’s lost it
    He’s a tool
    He’s Carlo.
    I’d like him a lot
    But……
    He smokes the good pot
    He drives a landrover
    He’s Carlo. Carlo!
    He’s Carlo.
    I see him in whitley bay
    I stare at him in dismay
    He’s smokes the good grass
    I’ll knit him a sweater.
    He’s Carlo. Carlo! He’s Carlo.
    I think he’s a real bore
    In his silver 4×4
    He renders me mute
    He’s Carlo. I got a problem with Carlo.
    I really think he’s a tool
    He’s a tool. He’s Carlo.
