Have you seen
Number sixteen
Last checked in
At point nineteen
Never made twenty
Had petrol plenty
No one's seen
Number sixteen
I saw a car
From afar
Up that hill
Could it be there still?
Near a home
All alone
Looked abandoned
Near the oakland
Yes, I saw them
Going round the bend
Looked pretty lost
With shattered exhaust
Making a mess
I confess
I thought they'd given up
It'll need a massive clean up
Xxxxxx
