I got a bicycle 

With new reflectors 
Colorful streamers 
Ride past my neighbors 

I got this brand new bike 
It's just a bicycle 
It's got a basket 
And it rings it sings 

And all the kids they flip me off 
As I am riding by 
They just want my b-i-k-e 
It's m-i-n-e mine 

I got a bicycle 
With new reflectors 
Colorful streamers 
Ride past my neighbors 

And all the kids they want my bike 
Cause they know it is the best 
All the kids they want my bike 
Cause it's better than the rest 

All the kids they flip me off 
As I am flying by 
And they just want my 
All the kids they piss me off 
As I am riding by 
And they just want b-i-k-e 
It's m-i-n-e mine

 

 

Broken Chain

You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off
You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off

Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway

You got your car
It doesn't work
The wheel came off
You got your car
It doesn't work
The wheel came off

So leave your seatbelt off
You won't wear it anyway
So leave your seatbelt off
You won't wear it anyway

You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell off
You got your bike
It doesn't work
The chain fell of

Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Leave your helmet home
You won't wear it anyway
Anyway
Anyway
