Demolition Derby

Ed Mrasz jr 1977 (New Kensington, PA)



I like the demo derby.
I think it's really cool.
You start in reverse.
With your foot to the floor.
You hit anything that moves.
You slam them against the wall.
Oh what a feeling.
When you're battling in a car.
The adrenaline rush is awesome.
You couldn't beat it at all.
There's no problem until.
Oh man I need another car.
