My model year is 1933.
They’re put together differently these days
The models made today appear to run and run and run
But don’t forget
Back then the parts, they didn’t last that long
Without some form of tuneup now and then
Well, you guessed it. Here I am
In one of. Tucson’s local tuneup shops
What will they do?
Well, first of all they’ll check my sparking timing
My spark plugs got a bit of crud by firing away
A bit too early and a bit too late
My radiator overheated some; they’ve got to clear all pipes
And flush the radiator, helping it take in more air
The battery needs a charge and then the belts they’ll tighten too
Sometimes on pressing on the breaks we weave and swerve a bit
They’ll have to pay attention to that too
Exhaust could use a muffler, but the dipstick’s doing fine
So I’ll not write much poelitics o’er the next few days
That doesn’t mean there ain’t much there to say
‘Bout POTUS, SCOTUS, FBI and more
All dark and deep as politics can be
And with this latest tuneup
I’ve got miles to go before I heap
