[Verse]
I'm late for a meeting with a good friend of mine
He lives on the coast of all the oceans of time
When I tried to visit, he was livin' in Maine
I brought my El Camino, it's never been the same

[Bridge]
I parked my car into the ocean just to see it float
And did it pretty good, I tell ya it acted like a boat
I sailed it past the Coast Guard and the Navy paid the fee
But see this car boat set free

[Chorus]
Replacement for displacement
The water overtakes it
The passengers are wasted
So pass me my beer

Cigarette lights a fire
The car—it's sinking higher
The El Camino drives like
There's nothing to fear

[Verse]
Sailed it to Florida and the car went in smoke
I went and found all the problems to the issue I spoke
It's a mix-up with the smell, I tell ya this ain't a sign
'Cause I filled it up with diesel when the gas was fine

[Bridge]
I parked my car into the ocean just to see it float
And did it pretty good, I tell ya it acted like a boat
I sailed it past the Coast Guard and the Navy paid the fee
But see this car boat set free

[Chorus]
Replacement for displacement
The water overtakes it
The passengers are wasted
So pass me my beer

Cigarette lights a fire
The car—it's sinking higher
The El Camino drives like
There's nothing to fear

[Instrumental]

Replacement for displacement
The water overtakes it
The passengers are wasted
So pass me my beer

Cigarette lights a fire
The car—it's sinking higher
The El Camino drives like
There's nothing to fear

Replacement for displacement
The water overtakes it
The passengers are wasted
So pass me my beer

Cigarette lights a fire
The car—it's sinking higher
The El Camino drives like
There's nothing to fear

Replacement for displacement
The water overtakes it
The passengers are wasted
So pass me my beer

Cigarette lights a fire
The car—it's sinking higher!
The El Camino drives like
There's nothing to fear
