LITTLE DEUCE COUPE (BEACH BOYS): This Beach Boys classic was written in 1963 about a car that was made originally in 1932 (the Deuce refers to the 2 in 1932). ''Just a little deuce coupe with a flat head mill / But she'll walk a Thunderbird like she's standin' still / She's ported and relieved and she's stroked and bored / She'll do a hundred and forty with the top end floored''. This is not the only song to refer to a Deuce – there is also a famous song, Blinded By the Light, originally written by Bruce Springsteen, and popularized by Manfred Mann: ''Blinded by the light, wrapped up like a Deuce, another roller in the night''. But for some reason, the singer of Manfred Mann couldn't pronounce the word Deuce very well, and it came off sounding more like a different word, which we won't print here... but it rhymes with 'whoosh' and it often precedes the word 'bag' when referring to guys with fake orange tans who wear shirts with lots of flames on it and do their hair like Pauly D from Jersey Shore...

Here we go again with the one minute google search coming up with a list that the writer hasnt got a clue about, but, wastes our time putting in on here.

Lets bring you up to speed and sing one we think you know....

The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round , round and round............

My dissapointment
Writers Mom
A thousand times I said you cant write, a thousand times I said you have nothing to say, yet here you are bringing shame to the family and breaking my heart.

Well I'm sick of it and because you have hurt me so mant times I'm going to share with these readers a secret. Your favourite car song is Golden Earing's "Gay Bar Love"
