In the hands of science ---
  the complete appliance.
  We're moved to motor.
  Do you fly a Spitfire?
  Do you slide on a tea-tray?
  Or walk on a short trip (Sundays).
  Or drive come what may (enjoy).
  
  Automotive science and engineering.
  
  When big was better ---
  and fast was chic,
  the oil was cheaper ---
  now we're up the creek.
  But the Japs are coming
  and everyone's turbo'd
  and carbon fibre
  is the way to go, go.
  
  Down at the robot factory
  things are humming.
  New radical suspension ---
  no humans testing.
  (Wind it up, wind it up.)
  Take a trip
  in your Freudian slip.
  Doctor Ferdinand (Ferdie)
  has you in his grip.
