We Talk About Cars

The girls in the book group talk about feelings

Politics and government, ethical dilemmas

The girls in the book group talk about details

Character development, dieting and travel

Personal revelations, how they got their hair cut

Tom and Patty's marriage, and Sally's romance

But over in the driveway, just before football

The boys are sorta pensive, and if and when we talk

We talk about cars, some about fishin'

Gettin' more mileage from a manual transmission

Cars, to make the connection, we talk about cars

The girls in the book group talk about issues

Worries on the homefront, what would make you happy?

The girls in the book group talk about children

Other people's problems, jobs and global warming

Obsessive and compulsive model train enthusiasts

Oprah's new selection and Niki's new boss

But over in the brew pub, sippin' up micros

The boys are kinda quiet, but if and when we talk

We talk about cars, all across the nation

How your plugs are firin' is useful information

Cars, to make the connection, we talk about cars

We like to bond over bondo, it isn't right or wrong

We share a common language, that's how we get along

The girls in the book group read between the crow's feet

Searching for the meaning and shedding a tear

The girls in the book group talk about lifestyle

And choices people make about the way they live

Arrogant and disgusting SUV drivers

Menopausal moments and when to retire

But over by the big screen snackin' on nachos

There's no conversation but if and when we talk

We talk about cars, Anna Kournikova

Stickin' new wheels on the 66 Nova

Cars, to make the connection

We talk about

We talk about cars

We talk about cars

We talk about cars (whoa-oh)

We talk a little bit about cars (yeah, yeah)

We talk a little bit about cars (whoa-oh)

You know we like to talk about cars (yeah, yeah)
