Bitchin' Camaro Lyrics
Rod - Hey Jack, what's happenin'?
Joe - Oh, I don't know.
Rod - Well, rumor around town says you think you might be heading down to the shore.
Joe - Uh, yeah, I think I'm goin' down to the shore.
Rod - Whatcha gonna do down there?
Joe - Uh, I don't know, play some video games, buy some Def Leppard t-shirts.
Rod - Hey, don't forget to get your Motley Crue t-shirt, y'know, all proceeds go to get their lead singer out of jail.
Joe - Uh huh.
Rod - Hey, you gonna check out the Sandbar while you're there?
Joe - Uh, what's the Sandbar?
Rod - Oh, it's this place that lets sixteen year-old kids drink.
Joe - Oh, cool.
Rod - Y'know who's gonna be there?
Joe - Uh, who?
Rod - My favorite cover band, Crystal Shit.
Joe - Oh.
Rod - Yeah, they do a Doors show, you'd be really impressed, in fact, it goes a little like this:
Love me two times baby
Love me twice today
Love me two times girl
Cause I got AIDS
Love me two times baby, once for tomorrow, once cause I got AIDS
Joe - Wow, Pretty good Jim Morrison impersonation there.
Rod - Yeah, I hope those guys have a good sense of humor and don't take us to court.
Joe - Uh, what's the court?
Rod - Never mind that,
Joe - Oh, you mean like the People's Court?
Rod - Well, that's another story; the important thing here is you gotta ask me how I'm gonna get down to the shore.
Joe - Uh, how you gonna get down to the shore?
Rod - Funny you should ask, I've got a car now.
Joe - Oh wow, how'd you get a car?
Rod - Oh my parents drove it up here from the Bahamas.
Joe - You're kidding!
Rod - I must be, the Bahamas are islands, okay, the important thing now, is that you ask me what kind of car I have.
Joe - Uh, what kinda car do ya' got?
Rod - I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO!
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I ran over my neighbors
BITCHIN CAMARAO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Now it's in all the papers.
My folks bought me a BITCHIN CAMARO with no insurance to match;
So if you happen to run me down, please don't leave a scratch.
I ran over some old lady one night at the county fair;
And I didn't get arrested, because my dad's the mayor.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Doughnuts on your lawn
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Tony Orlando and Dawn
When I drive past the kids, they all spit and cuss,
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO and they have to ride the bus.
So you'd better get out of my way, when I run through your yard;
Because I've got a BITCHIN CAMARO;
And an Exxon credit card.
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
Hey, man where ya headed?
BITCHIN CAMARO, BITCHIN CAMARO
I drive on unleaded.

There was actually a Doors cover band called Crystal Ship that would play on the Jersey Shore in the 70s and 80s.
No one mentions how funny it is that Joe and Rod SWITCH places!! First it's Joe who is goin' down to the shore. Then Rod asks Joe to ask Rod how HE is getting down there....aww you know what i mean...
The line above that reads:
"So if you happen to run me down, please don't leave a scratch."
Should say:
So if I happen to run YOU down, please don't leave a scratch.
which is funnier.
I love this song :) I can't believe I'm the first to say anything about it... Well, to me this song just means a bunch of meaningless summer afternoons with my friends, just hanging out....the good ol' days :)
one of the funniest songs ever written, and it has a kick-ass beat to boot, i remember the first time i heard this song back in the '80's and i thought WTF was that? An ironic look at a priveleged punk's arrogant attitude. Loved how they inserted the line 'Tony Orlando and Dawn' simply because it rhymed.
most awesomest song in the whole world. ever.
And there are many different openings to the song, a couple of which have been recorded, but who knows how many they have done total.
I love this song, Im surprised more people havent commented on it.
theres not much to say about this song other than it's about dumb and careless rich kids who are still aware of their faults lyrically (including the intro) and kick ass sounding musically.
"I must be, the Bahamas are islands."
I love that line.
kickass song, by the way.
