A truckload of art from New York City Was hauling a weighty load The driver was singing, the sunset was pretty But the truck turned over and it rolled off the road
CHORUS: Yeah the truckload of art, it's burning by the highway Precious objects are scattered all over the ground It's a terrible sight, if a person were to see it But there weren't nobody around
The driver went sailing high in the sky Landed in the cold lap of the Lord Who smiled and then said: "Son, you're better off dead Than hauling a truckload full of hot avant garde"
REPEAT CHORUS
REPEAT HOOs
Yeah some important artwork was thrown to the ground Tragically landing in the weeds And the smoke could be seen from miles all around But nobody knows what it means
CHORUS: Yeah the truckload of art is burning near the highway And a tough job for the highway patrol Who'll soon see the smoke, come running to poke Dig an empty ditch throw the arts in a hole
REPEAT HOOs
CHORUS: Yeah the truckload of art is burning near the highway And it's raging far out of control What the critics had cheered is now shattered and queered And theres no more reviews as it's strewed? on the road
CHORUS: Yeah the truckload of art, it's burning by the highway Precious objects are scattered all over the ground It's a terrible sight, if a person were to see it But there weren't nobody around
