The Lyrics
There are a lot of twits in the bike lane, this is a sad fact of life. Imagine how it feels to be the exception that proves the rule, though...
Honk when I'm near you, done nothing wrong, please
Save it for the others, not hard
When they weave round you then you can beep, dude
That's because they are the arse
Those dicks can't keep in the lane that they're given
Wrong way to deal with parked cars
Common bike hurdle, they might've failed
Please set those cyclists apart
From those who take the road easy
Stay in the lane that's clearly marked
Those assholes make me uneasy
Whenever I unlock my bike, this farce
Makes my exercise too hard
Won't find me turning without a hand signal
Keep myself away from cars
A solo cyclist, cyclist groups have width
That push themselves out way too far
I get why you mock me, others before me
Have set the lowest of bars
Rage is infernal at those who failed
To follow laws real hard
I get it makes you uneasy
Since those assholes make your drive real hard
You'd think they would take it easy
Cause they're far more squishable than your car
Save your honks for them, not hard
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Save it for the others, not hard
When they weave round you then you can beep, dude
That's because they are the arse
Those dicks can't keep in the lane that they're given
Wrong way to deal with parked cars
Common bike hurdle, they might've failed
Please set those cyclists apart
From those who take the road easy
Stay in the lane that's clearly marked
Those assholes make me uneasy
Whenever I unlock my bike, this farce
Makes my exercise too hard
Won't find me turning without a hand signal
Keep myself away from cars
A solo cyclist, cyclist groups have width
That push themselves out way too far
I get why you mock me, others before me
Have set the lowest of bars
Rage is infernal at those who failed
To follow laws real hard
I get it makes you uneasy
Since those assholes make your drive real hard
You'd think they would take it easy
Cause they're far more squishable than your car
Save your honks for them, not hard
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Remember, the right of way doesn't give you a free pass to be a douche.

I think this song could double as a PSA for road safety. Nice job. Now I regret giving this a 5 for funny. I've got a PSA-type song to post this week. Not bike-related.
