I am a republican and I don't even own a car, and I walk or bike every where.

I'm a moral paradox. On the one hand, I ride my bicycle; on the other hand, when I do drive, I drive like a freakin' maniac.

There was a man in the jungle, trying to make ends meet
Found himself one day with an axe in his hand
When a voice said, "Buddy can you spare that tree
We gotta save this world starting with your land"
It was a rock 'n roll millionaire from the USA
Doing three to the gallon in a big white car
And he sang and sang 'till he polluted the air
And he blew a lot of smoke from a Cuban cigar
