I think a roadtrip's what we need,
We need a fun get-away, indeed!
Let's do a roadtrip again
And go someplace we haven't been.

Should we go East or to the West
Or North or South -- which way is best?
Why not put a map upon the wall
And let's throw a dart to make the call.

The map was hung, the dart was thrown
And landed in a place, to us, unknown.
Not too far away, a town not so little
By the curious name of Delapididdle.

What goes on there? We'd like to know.
We packed the van, "Ready, set, let's go!"
The "WELCOME" sign had been marked through
It now read, "Go away. We don't want you."

They don't mean it, just kids playing games.
Our interest in Delapididdle still remains.
Only a few people were there walkin' round
And, most wore odd clothes and surly frown.

They waved their fist, would scream and shout,
We wondered what that was all about.
Main Street Delapididdle was burned or boarded -
We had not heard of this mess reported.

Then a group saw us, started coming our way
We had obviously come on a bad day...
Take any road, just get us out of here,
This roadtrip has us visiting fear!

"Wake up! You've had a bad dream in your snooze,"
She said, "You're simply watching too much news!"
"From all this bad news we must be freed,"
She said, "I think a roadtrip's what we need!"
