car wash and then we took some bomb

few hours we were uploading a free car
to the internet and we're live

just people calling me a liar scammer
and five eight why how do you know that
i don't know if we'll be able to get rid
of it online but i have an idea since no

jeff out of the highway and give him to
the first person who stops assuming they
want it it's literally unlocked just get
inside of this car and take it i don't
care now we wait

empty parking spots because obviously
someone would have parked their car
there if they had a car who am i kidding
that doesn't make any sense next i spent
all day reaching out to billboard owners
so i can get an ad up trying to find the
cheapest option i possibly could 2500 to
7 500 each per month are we really going
to spend that much money trying to give
away a free car
we have to do it we have to do this
what are we doing all right
here we go oh

there that wants this vehicle that's
what i'm trying to look up there
that's me okay if we don't get a phone
call by the end of the night like i quit

deal today look at that man that's a
savage right there well i already know
