Lyrics

There's a Pontiac Solstice at Rehoboth
Low miles and a tiny trunk
She sits at a beach house all alone
and dreams about making a run

An orange man drives her to the country club
and maybe to a home depot
the plates expired but the numbers right
88-44-00

Tonight tonight the Solstice rides
she's gonna rev it up and lay em down
get off this sleepy avenue
and drive like hell right out of town

Now some cars they do a little livin
some cars just die sittin at the beach
they come home from a round down at the club
and sit there in the street

Tonight tonight the Solstice rides
she's gonna rev it up and lay em down
get off this sleepy avenue
and drive like hell right out of town

    This is very nice. I always enjoy the more niche jingle topics. Great voice for this style too.

    This is really great. I believe the Solstice still sits in storage somewhere. Lonely.

    This came to me while playing the original song this evening. What ever became of the Solstice? I haven't heard about it in a while.
