Cars And Girls
The Dictators Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm the type of guy who's into getting high
On a Friday afternoon
So now you know I'm a regular Joe
I'll tell you what I like to do

I like to make the scene
In my machine
I like to make the scene
I leave 'em in another state
Whenever I accelerate

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this crazy world
Except for cars and a good, good, good girls

I got a lot of good sittin' under my hood
But it doesn't make me feel alright, alright
The only time I'm feelin' fine
Is when my baby's sittin' tight

I like to get it down
I like to feel the sound
I like to get around
I leave 'em in another state
Whenever I accelerate

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world

Baby, you and me will go
Cruisin' everywhere we know
We'll take a trip out to the west
'Cause the coast's the most
Because the surfin's best

I live for cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world
Except for cars and a good, good, good girls

The fastest car and a movie star
Are my only goals in life
It's the hippest scene, it's the American dream
And for that I'll always fight

I like to get it down
I like to feel the sound
I like to get around

I wanna drive the fastest car
I wanna drive the fastest car
I wanna drive the fastest car
Cars, girls, surfin' beer
Nothin' else matter here

Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
There's nothing else in this crazy world
Except for cars and

Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls
Cars and girls, cars and girls
Car, cars and girls




There's nothing else in this [Incomprehensible] world
Except for cars and good good good goodbye

One of the most underrated bands ever! Great music with a sense of humor.

Allen Freeman

It’s the mid 70’s and I see some bargain bin records. Cheap. This one was there and I thought, weird! Got to hear this. And so liked it! The humor is there in every song. These guys are great.

yr2square

I bought this album when it came on it '75, shows how old I am. It's the only one I can remember loving the music and laughing out loud at. I love it.

nrjan

Pretty cool to hear this one again after 30 years!!

Walter Fechter

Back in the 70s, some people listened to Springsteen. I dug these guys, DEVO and The Ramones.

sweetestperfection90

when i first heard my dad playing this song I thought he'd gotten a new beech boys record... turned out he hadn't! since then this album was the definitive 'dad being cool' album of my adolescence so you can count at least one former teen who listened to Handsome Dick!

Mason Kay

I am a teenager listening to this and buddy.... it kicks ASS

Paul Hooson

The Jewish Punk Beach Boys. A great fun act!

Julius Fletcher

These guys are so fucking underrated second best band to the stooges in my opinion

Walt Fechter

The Dictators -- the high octane version of Jan and Dean.
