Hockey Fights and Car Fires (never get me down).

Hockey Fights and Car Fires is a song by an as-yet [12 February 2021] unidentified artificial intelligence.

Lyrics

Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothin' ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothin' to do but frown
Hockey fights and car fires never get me down

Commentary

Sadly, this image reminds me that I am fascinated by flaming cars—a morbid hobby.

Also, I like hockey better than figure skating, because hockey is like figure skating with occasional fist fights. It's not often that "the gloves come off", but when they do, oh Lord, the sight of grown men on skates on ice exchanging blows at close quarters — that is *sport*.

Now back our to our regularly scheduled burning automobiles.
