This song sounds kinda fun, although I only heard a sound sample. Probably not the one you want, though.

ROLLING PIN

Well it's one a.m. and I'm out of gas.
The last-chance pump to home I already passed.
But it's one a.m. and I'm out of gas.
Mean miss curfew's gonna have my ass.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She's gonna ask me where I've been
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

Well it's two a.m. and the front tire's flat.
I haven't got a notion where the hell I'm at.
But it's two a.m. and the front tire's flat.
Mean miss curfew's gonna have my ass.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She's got the strength of a hundred men
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

Well it's three a.m. and the engine dies.
She'll never put an ounce of her faith in my alibis.
But it's three a.m. and the engine's dead.
Mean miss curfew's gonna tell the world she's been misled.
She'll think I'm givin' her a great big load
When I tell her my affair with the open road.

She's gonna hit me with her rolling pin
Again and again and again and again and again.
She'll keep swinging till she does me in
When she hits me in the head with her rolling pin.

It's the crack of dawn and I pull in.
The door swings open and it's her.
She don't have a rolling pin,
But it's the crack of dawn and I just pull in.
She says she's glad I'm alive.
Don't care where I've been.

She didn't hit me with her rolling pin.
She didn't ask me where I'd been.
She gives me love and takes me in.
Slaps my face and says with a grin,
"Don't do that again
Or I'll hit you with my rolling pin again and again!"
