- The mechanic raised up from under my hood
He shook his head and said, 'This aint good
Your timin belts done, shrunk one size too small
Those spark plug wires are a little too long
And your main prodsponders nearly gone
Your injector ports are stripped and that aint all.'
'The torque converters runnin low on torque
And that water pumps nearly down a quart
But we caught it all in time so youre in luck'
He said, 'Ive got the time and Ive got the parts
Just give me the word and Im ready to start
I think we can bring her in for eight hundred bucks .'
But dont be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny
It wont take too long, itll just take money
Then he said, 'Aint you that songwriter guy?'
I said, 'Yes, I am,' he said, 'So am I.'
And he sat down and played me a song by the grease rack
When he finished singin he gave me a smile
And I closed my eyes and pondered awhile
And he said, 'What do you think? Now dont hold nothin back.'
Well, I gave him my most sorrowful look
And I said, 'This songs got a broken hook
I can order you a new one from Nashville but it wont be cheap
And I know youve been using a cut-rate thesaurus
Cause your adverbs have backed up into your chorus
Now your verse is runnin on verbs that are way too weak.'
But dont be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny
It wont take too long, itll just take money
And I said, ' Hold on friend now Im not through
I hate to be the one to give you the news.
But your whole melodic structures worked itself loose
Its got so many dotted eighth notes in it
Id keep her under fifty beats per minute
I mean, thats just me talkin, its really up to you.'
And youve got a bad safety problem with
That dominant chord with the augmented fifth
Just see how dangerously high it raises you up
So just go on over there and work on my car
Ill sit here by the fan and chances are
I can straighten this thing out for eig...nine hundred bucks. '
But dont be downhearted, I can fix it for you, sonny
It wont take too long
You guessed it
It may be a hit
I like it...
