[Verse 1: Robin Goldwasser]
Electric car
On roads so dark
To change the end
Rewrite the start
Electric car
So good, so far

[Verse 2: Robin Goldwasser]
Electric car
On verdant green
Invent a turn
Invent a dream
Electric car
The new machine

[Chorus: John Flansburgh, John Linnell, Robin Goldwasser]
Let's take a ride in an electric car
To the West Side in an electric car
How can you deny an electric car?
Won't you take a ride with me?
Come on and take a ride with me!

[Verse 3: Robin Goldwasser]
Electric car
Beside the tree
Roll past the dock
Roll past the sea
Electric car
Roll silently
[Verse 4: Robin Goldwasser]
Electric car
On roads so dark
To change the end
Rewrite the start
Electric car
So good, so far

[Chorus: John Flansburgh, John Linnell, Robin Goldwasser]
Let's take a ride in an electric car
To the West Side in an electric car
How can you deny an electric car
Won't you take a ride with me
Come on and take a ride with me!

[Bridge: John Flansburgh]
Not diesel, steam, or gasoline

[Chorus: John Flansburgh, John Linnell, Robin Goldwasser]
Let's take a ride in an electric car
Happiness resides in an electric car
You can even drive an electric car
Won't you take a ride with me?
Come on and take a ride with me!

[Outro: John Linnell]
Let's take a ride in an electric car
To the West Side in an electric car
How can you deny an electric car?
Won't you take a ride with me?
Come on and take a ride with me
