Budgericar
By
Mary McGuire
I really, really, love my car
It's yellow like a budgerigar
Its squeaking, when I drive it round
Has a budgerigarish sound
And.... Like a budgie, I do wish
It ran on seeds and cuttle fish
Because, if you'll excuse the pun
It would be very cheap to run
I wonder if they ever will
Invent a car that runs on Trill?
Maybe in future? Who can tell?
If so, d'you think there'd be a bell
Your car could ding to let you know
Its fuel supply was running low?
Perhaps in that far distant time
They won't be making cars like mine
Perhaps in that far distant age
They'll run on Hamster in a cage.
Our furry friend inside his wheel
Will trot whilst gears of burnished steel
Transform the little creature's power
To speeds of many miles per hour....
Is that the kind of world we face
Where hamster cars proceed apace
And run on salad, nightly?
Perhaps but it's unlikely.....
