A Song I Wrote About Trading in a Car
You may need some convincing that it’s a good idea to pursue a new car in exchange for your older car. Of course, it can be tough to commit, and it’s especially hard to find a solid trade-in value.
Whenever I need to be convinced about something, I refer to fake song lyrics. That’s what I’ve provided for you below. I also included this instrumental track so you can sing along at home. Why do I choose this specific track? Because the computer-generated sounds make my ears tingle, and who doesn’t enjoy watching generic clips of American flags?
[Sing to the tune of “American Pie” by Don McLean]
A long, long time ago
I can still remember
How my old car used
to freaking roar.
And I knew if I had my chance,
And I figured out my finance.
I’d snag another new car, that’s for sure
But that monthly fee was way too much.
I couldn’t afford a car that lush.
Bad news from the dealer.
But I wanted that wheeler.
I can’t remember if I cried,
But I know my eyes got very wide.
And something touched me deep inside
The day, I noticed trade-in…
So, hi, hi, my new car sales guy
That trade option that you offer is too good to pass by.
And the money saved will make me feel good inside.
So should I sign here on this dotted line?
Should I sign here on this dotted line?
[tempo picks up]
Have you driven a new car?
The unmatched power is the star.
And that’s not the greatest part.
We all like safety technol-gies.
New cars get you through any squeeze
And keeps all the occupants in one part.
Well, I know that you love lux-ry
Well the new cars fulfill all your needs
It serves as your chauff-eur
There’s even heated drink holders!
And don’t get me started about the style
The sexiest cars you’ve seen in a while
You can improve your lifestyle
The day, you opt to trade in…
You’ll be saying
Hi, hi, my new car sales guy
That trade option that you offer is too good to pass by.
And the money saved will make me feel good inside.
So should I sign here on this dotted line?
Should I sign here on this dotted line?
You may wonder how this all works out
I’ll help cut down on all of that doubt,
And be your singing trade-in guide
Trading a car will save you money,
The money saved will make you feel money
With monthly payments that you can stick to
There are other finance benefits
That go with buying this car with glitz
I’d tell you if there’s time
And it’s real hard to rhyme
There’s nothing else here we should discuss
There’s nothing that can cause a fuss
But here comes the final chorus
To sing about trade-ins…
And we’re all singing
Hi, hi, my new car sales guy
That trade option that you offer is too good to pass by.
And the money saved will make me feel good inside.
So should I sign here on this dotted line?
Should I sign here on this dotted line?
