Susie, the Little Blue Coupe

00:00:31 [ Narrator ] This is the story of Susie.

00:00:47 One day her flashing grill caught the eye...

00:01:03 Why, she's the sweetest little car money can buy.

00:01:16 Susie was a happy little car, as she glided down the avenue.

00:01:33 The minute she stepped out on the main drag

00:01:49 But then, she had a lot of pep and pickup

00:02:07 She met all the big wheels--

00:02:34 But at the end of the day, it felt mighty good to be home...

00:02:49 But as the years passed, Susie's mileage rolled up

00:03:03 Her color was fading and...

00:03:16 [ Trolley Bell Dinging ]

00:03:34 Susie was all run-down and long overdue for a checkup.

00:03:55 [ Owner Sighing ] No, no. What I need is a new car.

00:04:10 [ Cackling ] We know we're crazy.

00:04:52 [ Narrator ] Now it was back streets and dark alleys.

00:05:06 Abused, neglected

00:05:32 One dark night as she sat all by herself...

00:05:49 [ Engine Starts ]

00:06:01 - Small blue coupe, license number A72-- - [ Siren Wailing ]

00:06:26 [ Siren Winds-Down, then Winds-Up ]

00:06:48 [ Crash ]

00:07:16 [ Bird Singing ]

00:07:41 [ Narrator ] They stripped her fenders, chopped her top

00:07:59 And it couldn't have happened to a nicer little car.
