Electric motoring
At last we drive a motor car
That makes the senses stir
Push that pedal, hit that button
All set to go, with scarce a whirr
Not a sound, nor yet vibration
Announces our departure now
Contented, smooth acceleration
Not yon poisoned, noisy row
No engine revs or slipping clutch
No gears upset that linear notion
And thank the gods of amps and such
Free from smelly motion lotion
Those old cars, in their day, were fine
But those nostalgic words we said
Have seen us chopped, chastised and punished
And banished to this outcast thread
Sorry Alb - I really meant to post this here but I think I sent it to the forbidden zone.
