[00:00.98] Last night I saw an accident
[00:15.80] On the corner of Third and Green
[00:19.92] Two cars collided and I got excited
[00:24.81] Just being part of that scene
[00:28.53] It was Mrs. Tom Walker and her beautiful daughter
[00:33.40] Pamela, was driving the car
[00:37.52] They got hit by a man in a light blue sedan
[00:42.24] Who had obviously been to a bar.
[00:45.91] They don't know how lucky they are
[00:50.60] They could have run into that tree
[00:55.43] Got struck by a bolt of lightning
[00:59.67] And raped by a minority.
[01:03.82] It was a four way stop dilemma
[01:14.64] We all arrived the same time
[01:19.40] I yielded to the man to the right of me
[01:23.99] And he yielded it right back to mine
[01:27.73] Well, the yield went around and around and around
[01:32.79] Till Pamela finally tried
[01:37.04] Just then the man in the light blue sedan
[01:41.62] Hit Pamela's passenger side.
[01:45.66] They don't know how lucky they are
[01:50.37] They could have run into that tree
[01:55.27] Got struck by a bolt of lightning
[01:59.38] And raped by a minority.
[02:04.42] Pamela hit her head on the mirror
[02:27.52] Mrs Walker got a bump on the knee
[02:32.17] The man hit himself in the face and said
[02:37.16] "Why does this happen to me?"
[02:40.92] The neighbors came out
[02:43.55] And they gathered about
[02:45.80] Saying "Hey! who hit who anyway?"
[02:49.95] And the police arrived at a quarter to five
[02:54.48] And pronounced all the victims "Okay".
[02:58.70] They don't know how lucky they are
[03:03.17] They could have run into that tree
[03:07.79] Got struck by a bolt of lightning
[03:12.24] And raped by a minority.
[03:16.83]
