mass transit, sic transit gloria

Seems like money isn't scarce when building our freeways;

We've exit ramps and clover leafs to last 'til end of days.

You can drive straight from New York to bright Laguna Beach

And see less of the country than the fuzz upon a peach.

But transit funds for bus and rail are always running shy;

People want to drive their cars while all the subways die.

We tax the gas we guzzle for the trolley cars we dread

Will not keep our economy from hanging by a thread.

So let's build better highways while the bus line closes down –

This will keep the paupers segregated in downtown.

Those who can't afford a car or even motor bike

Still have two good thumbs at hand and might as well hitchhike.
