Listening to Rush and a few minutes ago I heard this bumper music for the millionth time and for some reason I had a flashback to the gymnasium at my Junior High school, it was a pep rally and the cheerleaders were shaking their blue and gold pompoms. I never knew the name of the song or paid attention to the lyrics. It was the horns I always remembered and the God in heaven you know I love you phrase and I saw myself mesmerized, swaying to the tune in that gym like it just happened.
Well sitting here at my computer I was trying to find the song. I tried shazam while humming the sounds and got nothing. I go-ogled the phrase and there it was. Check out the lyrics.

Vehicle
The Ides of March
Hey well
I’m a friendly stranger in the black Sedan
Won’t you hop inside my car?
I got pictures, got candy
I’m a lovable man
And I can take you to the nearest star
I’m your vehicle, baby
I’ll take you anywhere you want to go
I’m your vehicle, woman
By now I’m sure you know
That I love ya (love ya)
I need ya (need ya)
I want ya
Got to have you, child
Great God in heaven you know I love you
Well, if you want to be a movie star
I’ll get a ticket to Hollywood
But if you want to stay just like you are
You know I think you really should
I’m your vehicle, baby
I’ll take you anywhere you want to go
I’m your vehicle, woman
By now I’m sure you know
That I love ya (love ya)
I need ya (need ya)
I want ya
Got to have you, child
Great God in heaven you know I love you
Oh, you know I do
Well, I’m the friendly stranger in the black Sedan
Won’t you hop inside my car
I got pictures, candy
I’m a lovable man
And I can take you to the nearest star
I’m your vehicle, baby
I’ll take you anywhere you want to go
I’m your vehicle, woman
By now I’m sure you know
That I love ya (love ya)
I need ya (need ya)
I want ya
I got to have you
Great God in heaven you know I love you
And I’m your vehicle, babe
You know I love ya (love ya)
I need ya (need ya)
I want ya
Got to have you, child
Great God in heaven you know I love you
That’s a great old tune! :)
Extremely icky lyrics.
