The Rush-Hour-Traffic Go To Work Cemetary Blues

Views: 147
Another new song on a motoring theme, though a little darker this time - I am saddened and alarmed by the amount of reckless drivers around these days, especially on my morning drive to work and on motorways.On the rare occasion I attend a funeral, I find it ironic that when I emerge back out into the street everybody seems to be rushing around, but we all end up in the same place...In our everyday lives traffic accidents are common unfortunately, a few people I've known personally have been killed in freak accidents just in this year, more lives are lost and injuries caused in the world by road traffic accidents so the statistics tell us, more than anything including war and illness - take care out there, I'm not in any hurry at all...Thanks for watching, and as always PLAY LOUD !...but please, not while you're driving!
