The Lyrics
I am a longtime NASCAR fan and have followed the sport since 2004. This song is about an older race fan who laments the changes that NASCAR has witnessed since the '90s.
Well, I saw the NASCAR race last night
But Junior wrecked and my heart broke and I let out sad sighs
He was somewhat on the short side
Used to love when Senior ruled the track
And Rusty Wallace always had that 2 primed for attack
But now the sport is out of whack
I loved the way old Dale would race
no-holds-barred, a high-speed chase
Now that era's gone
NASCAR's really torn
I still watch every race, but it's just not the same
Jeff Gordon's still around, in the number 24
And if Dale Jr. wrecks, it's really a shame
I'm wide awake and I can see that NASCAR's really torn
Harvick's leading all the laps tonight
He just passed both Penske cars going around the outside
I lost track of Edwards' ride
I don't care, Carl's had no luck
He hasn't really won that much
So many things wrong with NASCAR, it's torn
I still watch every race, but it's just not the same
Jeff Gordon's still around, in the number 24
If Dale Jr. wrecks, oh, it's such a shame
I'm wide awake and I can see that NASCAR's really torn
I'm up really late, and NASCAR's really torn (torn)
(Instrumental Break)
Hamlin ran well, and I won't lie
Jimmie's fuel tank then went dry
That's what's going on - NASCAR's really torn
I still watch every race, but it's just not the same
Jeff Gordon's still around, in the number 24
And when Dale Jr. wrecks, well, it's such a shame
I'm wide awake and I can see that NASCAR's really torn
I'm up really late - NASCAR's really torn
I still watch every race, but it's just not the same
Jeff Gordon's still around, driving number 24
I'm really late, and NASCAR's really torn (torn)

Something bad happens to the brain when you watch cars racing in a circle for 500 miles.
NASCAR is for pukes who can't handle Indy speeds. Also, learn how to properly write a parody instead of cramming all the lyrics together like one big run on sentence. 2s
Come on, guys. If you really know what I'm doing, I just took it from a parody about the Seattle SuperSonics (same original song, different sport) and changed it to reflect NASCAR.
