My parents had a tape with this song on it, a friend gave it to them off of a recording from a 35. I've been looking for it and can't find it anywhere. I remember some of the words even though I heard it about 20 years ago. If anyone knows who sings it or better yet where to get a copy of it, I would appreciate it very much. The lyrics I remember are it starts out with:

I'm in the northside hospital,
flat on my back.
My legs are broken,
and my ribs are crack.
My front teeth are missing,
I'm a one big scar.
I'll never drive another,
little Japanese car.

Chorus
Now I don't care,
how fat you are.
Your still not safe,
in a Japanese car.

I know their pretty,
and they will take you far.
But you're gonna,
get killed in a Japanese Car.

That's about all I remember. Thanks for any help.

And long playing (LP) records turned at 33 and a third rpm, not 35, just for the record. :)

The remainder of the song, as best as I can remember:

Well, me and my buddies
Were out for a ride.
We had a couple honeys
Sittin' by our side.
I stopped for a red light
Three cars back
When the guy behind us
Gave as a tap!
(Screech! Crash!)

Chorus
Now I don't care,
How fat you are.
Your still not safe,
In a Japanese car.
I know their pretty,
And they will take you far.
But you're going to,
Get killed in a Japanese Car.

I love my Sony Walkman
My Hitachi TV
My Nikon camera
And my new CD
Yamaha built this great guitar
But I'll never drive another
Little Japanese car

Chorus:
What would've been a fender-bender
Years ago
Has broke my nose,
Chopped off my toe!
Planned obsolescence
That's what they are!
And I'll never drive another
Little Japanese car!

I'm in the northside hospital
Flat on my back... (fade out)
