A love story


True Love is Spelled "ABARTH"

Red on Black or Black on White
That little car gave me a fright
Fiat four had a turbo roar
and a two stage clutch sticking out the floor

Some like muscle and some like speed
but she grabbed pavement like it was a need.
On gravel roads we were passin trucks
and the girl beside me just yelling "FUCK"

Put it sideways heading for a bridge
pulled for second hit the gas a smidge
Damn that car knew what to do
Straightened on out like it was nuthin new.

Big old engines may be built to pass
but this one here just sipped the gas.
300 ponies when I hit the floor
shift it quick and she'd cry for more.

Italian leather was soft to touch
And maybe I loved that car too much
But racing seats fit like a glove
And man she'd scream with a little shove

What happens when you see me weak? What happens when I fail? What happens when the dragon shuffles? What happens when you touch his scales? I know a dragon rests inside me, and with spells I give it sleep. And although it flags and drains me a watch on him I'll always keep. Does it scare you that he's hungry? In the dark and dying light? Does it scare you that the binding Might not last another night? With chant and chains and loving words I hold the beast at bay. And feel the warming of the sun, We live another day.

Watching the world fall apart from the back of my canoe. I'd let the sea kill me before any of you. Donald Trump and his party,  Russia, Brexit and drones, I know I am safest when I'm all alone. With the cougars and bears I know them by name, but rich men in groups are hardly as tame. So if travelling you seek me Go look for the fish There you will find me with all that I wish.
