From Maxwell Motors to a global consortium,
I often said that one day we will be driving a universal “car”.
Many people said I was crazy 40 years ago,
(I’m going 55 a few months from now) ,
Now in this economic peril of credit, Cerberus has found a partner,
After Daimler-Mercedes pitched off Chrysler before the meltdown did occur.
The stockholders said continuing with Chrysler is 'Bratwuerst or Bolony.'
Cerberus bought Daimler share for close to 40 cents on a dollar.
Now the ‘molto bene’ time for Chrysler and Fiat is here,
My parents had a Dodge Aspen, it was crappy car,
Joe Borkowski, my music buddy, had (has) a Fiat X-19 that leaked oil,
To me that is not funny,
Fiat is known by non-acronym, Fix It Again Tony.
