I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
It's not a popular car in this stuck up little town
It wasn't built for comfort, wasn't built for speed
Well what's this car got that I need
It's just a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
The Ford Festiva is a bad motherfucker on wheels
It's a red hot ride that no one ever steals
If you want one now then tough luck Stu
They stopped being made in 1992
I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
Some people say that Ford Festivas suck
But I can fit it in the back of my step-dad's pickup truck
I took my Festiva to the laundromat
The guy behind the counter said "You drive that?"
I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
Cops don't seem to bug me anymore
When I put the pedal to the floor
When I'm cruising down the highway they can't stop me
Cause my car tops out at 70
I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
My Ford Festiva's got everything I like
Painted bright turquoise with hot pink racing stripes
When I first saw the car I wasn't so sure
But if self consciousness is a disease, then my car's the cure
I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it down
Yeah you laugh when I pass by, you think you you're so cool
But you're spending all your money just on fossil fuel
I saw you at the station just the other day
You turned to me and said my car looks gay
But by the time you finished filling up your SUV
I had driven with your girlfriend down to Mexico City
I got a Ford Festiva and they're never gonna shut it
Ford Festiva yeah they say they're gonna shut it
Ford Festiva now they're really gonna shut it down
