Smog Gets In Your Eyes

They asked me through the years

Why I shed these tears.

I of course replied,

When you live in Van Nuys

Smog gets in your eyes.



I thought I played it wise,

So I closed my eyes.

But what do you suppose?

When both my eyes I close,

Smog gets up my nose.



I went to price

An anti-smog device

To put behind my car.

But all too quick,

The smog became too thick,

I could not find my car.



Ten million cars provide

Carbon monoxide.

If they'd all drive a horse,

There'd be no smog, of course,

But there'd be something worse

In your eyes!
