that was the sound of a ping pong ball
but most generally you here it tick -tick

I don't like sports very much
there's a vast number of sports I am not involved with
there's water skiing - in order to water ski really
you should swim right
you're not gonna stay up there all the time now
and I don't like to swim really
you know swimming is to me?
staying alive when I'm in the water - barley
I'd do anything to stay afloat
Even swallow Co2 cartridges
But I didn't come out here to talk about sports
I really I came out here
Peter talks about status
I can not think of one material object
that has more status in this country
than the automobile.
And it starts at a very early age now Right
I mean now at 14 kids want the car right
they get cheaters permits so they can drive
you get a learners permit at 15 and a cheaters permit at 14
and I guess I guess it's really necessary
because you loose a lot of face calling
up a girl and asking her you can
peddle right over to pick her up
they don't really go for that anymore.
And If you look back out of all the times
I had the automobile
Aside from a few interesting Saturday evenings
You got to admit The nicest times of all
was a Sunday afternoon, if you could get the car
you come down the stairs ker-bonk ker-bonk ker-bonk ker-bonk
Mom, Dad gonna take the car Ha Haaa

and the girls used to come out to take your order

I understand they're even putting in conveyer belts
in some drive-ins

you got at least 40 minutes to wait
even if it's a cup of coffee
you got 40 minutes to wait
and you can not get out of your car right
remember there was a time when drive-ins first opened
you used to pull in get out exchange hello's and greetings (kiss sound)
evidently some people were getting out and exchanging
something a little heavier than hello's and greetings
so they have policemen there to keep you in your car
