Tire Kicking Lyrics - Tourniquet

[Words & Music: Ted Kirkpatrick] 

Car for sale - what a deal - I assure you it's a steal 

Come and check it out some night - can't I see it in the light? 

Kick the tires if you wish - 32 psi? 

That's not bondo - It's all stock - do you think that I would lie? 

Has it been in any wrecks - my mechanic wants to check 

Oh no, to the contrary - to check it it's not necessary 

I know many verses and have studied many years 

Can't you see how holy my exterior appears? 

Armor on all 4 tires - you sure are looking good 

But you will be bent out of joint if I lift up that hood 

I thought I knew you pretty well - but under stress you fell apart 

You do just fine if you are driving up and down the block 

But find a road with lots of curves - I see a sponge and not a rock 

Find a road with lots of curves - I see a sponge and not a rock 

For all these years I've known the Lord 

And each year means a higher score 

If people tell you your a horse you better saddle up 

Have you noticed sin I lack? - odometer has been turned back 

I exposite under toil - but that engine sure burns oil 

I never miss a week of church - the transmission has a lurch 

In our friendship you can trust - hey that frame is full of rust 

I have some timely news for you 

The car you sell is not so new 

It isn't meant to run A1 

So as a test or just for fun 

For once lets see your real side 

The humble side that doesn't lie 

When pressures come that doesn't fly 

For once let's see your real side
