Horizon Lyrics - Singles - Arrogant Worms

From the deepest, darkest depths of...Whitby! 

Comes this sordid tale of speed... 

Murderous mayhem.. 

Cataclysmic combustion... 

Picturesque powered pistons... 

Accellerating automotive alarms... 

Stunningly stupifying stereo stunts! 

One man...a dream...a car...a 1984...Plymouth...HORIZON... 

I loved the car from tail to grill 

I wouldn't change a thing 

I wouldn't trade the ashtray 

For the Queen's engagement ring 

But things they started going wrong 

And went from bad to worse 

The clutch went kinda funny 

Then I couldn't use reverse 

Still I loved my baby 

And would not admit defeat 

Just because it left a trail 

Of rust along the street 

It kept on running bravely 

On duct tape and a prayer 

Plus a monthly tribute to 

The guy who did repairs 

It all seems so unfair (That was back the day he bought) 

Horizon! 

Horizon! 

Till one day on the parking lot 

They called four-oh-one 

My car became the meat between 

A Buick-Honda bun 

I saw some parts go flying 

That you really need to drive 

My car had become roadkill 

Though it never was alive 

Left a muffler in the passing lane 

A hubcap in the slow 

The windshield on the median 

A headlight in the snow 

And as I skidded off the road 

The other drivers laughed 

My middle-finger greeting 

Would be my epitaph 

Death would come at last (Here lies the man who dared to drive) 

Horizon! 

Now I look at my bent fender 

The twisted wheel rim 

I wonder if Horizon 

Will ever drive again 

But I know that this was not the end 

Road warriors die hard 

And I signed Mister Iacocca's 

Organ donor card 

The steel will get recycled 

And they'll build another car 

Bigger, faster, stronger 

An automotive star 

My quest will then begin 

And revenge will soon be mine 

As I drive my gleaming three-door 

Orange Chrysler Frankenstein 

Searching for that Buick 

To try to end its days 

We'll settle up that score 

And then we'll drive away (The sun will rise again on the) 

Horizon! 

My Horizon! 

My Horizon!
