Daisy for the 21st Century

Daisy, Daisy
Give me your answer do
I'm half crazy all for the love of you
It won't be a stylish marriage
I can't afford a carriage
But you look sweet
Upon a seat
Of a bicycle built for two

Hummer, Hummer
Why d'you use so much gas?
Smog in the summer,
It's such a pain in the ***.
I think I'll get on my ten-speed.
It's such a better road deed.
I don't smell so sweet,
But I can beat
The smell of your SUV.

Hey truck driver!
Please don't run over me.
I'm a survivor,
Or at least I intend to be.
I'm signalling for a left turn.
I don't know why you won't learn.
One thing I don't wish
Is to end up all squished
'Neath the wheels of an SUV.
