Mercedes Benz
by Janis Joplin
Oh Lord, won´t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won´t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
Oh Lord, won´t you buy me a color TV ?
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won´t you buy me a color TV ?
Oh Lord, won´t you buy me a night on the town ?
I´m counting on you, Lord, please don´t let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won´t you buy me a night on the town ?
Everybody!Oh Lord, won´t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends,
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So oh Lord, won´t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?That´s it!
This is my favorite song because is an ironic way to talk about people that pride or talk with God for utilitary things. They are really materialist and delieve they desreve have suntuary things.
I feel that we must seek new ways to say things. That's why I like this song: it is an original way of saying something that has been said many times, but that has not even been heard.
Besides, I like as it sounds, since it has no musical instruments. It is only the voice of Janis Joplin, which results in an even stronger message
