lyrics

I want every make of Holden ever made,
so I can look down from my balustrade
And admire my HJ, my EJ and my EK
I want every make of Holden ever made

Might only be an EH rusting in a paddock
My taste in cars is entirely democratic
A HG station wagon with flames along its side
Even if the diff is shaky let me take it for a ride
You can keep your Powers and pink lemonade,
Strap me in like the Marquis de Sade
I wanna lead the General Motors Parade
I want every make of Holden ever made

I want a jacked up FC ute with a rampaging 308
Me and my HQ panel van will go out on a date
When my Statesman comes a rollin’ by
They’ll sing out shut the gate
Gimme every make of Holden ever made

I want every make of Holden ever made
So I can look down on the empire that I’ve made
Original upholstery, dashboard and engine parts
Nothing on her anywhere from the shelves of a supermarket
Just every make of Holden ever made

I want a FE, FX, EK, even a Peter Brock Commodore
No matter how many cars I’ve got I’ll always want some more
The new ones are really fast
The old ones have got more class,
Gimme every make of Holden ever made

Every baby that was conceived in the back
Every dog that chased ‘em barking down the track
Will stand testament to say, in the beaming light of day
I want every make of Holden ever made
Strap me in like the Marquis de Sade
I wanna lead the General Motors Parade
I want every make of Holden ever made
