Words & music by paul simon 1983      Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Similarly made. similarly sold   In a motorcade. abandoned when they're old   Cars are cars all over the world      Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Engine in the front. jack in the back   Wheels take the brunt. pinion and a rack   Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world      But people are strangers   They change with the curve   From time zone to time zone   As we can observe   They shut down their borders   And think they're immune   They stand on their differences   And shoot at the moon      But cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Drive 'em on the left. drive 'em on the right   Susceptible to theft in the middle of the night   Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world      I once had a car   That was more like a home   I lived in it, loved in it   Polished it's chrome   If some of my homes   Had been more like my car   I probably wouldn't have   Travelled this far      Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world   Cars are cars all over the world
