Lyrics:
Hey now girl, what's the matter with me?
We're on a back road, driving to sea
Straight as a razor, kicking up dust
Digging through ditches and falling to rust
Taking me far, far as a rental car can go
Yea yea yea yea yea yea
Yea yea yea yea yea yea

La la la la la la music
La la la la la la music

Hey now girl, at the end of the road
Down where the reaper is walking alone
Singing a death knell, clapping along
At the end of the night there's a road we'll be on
Taking me far, far as a rental car can go
Yea yea yea yea yea yea
Yea yea yea yea yea yea

La la la la la la music
La la la la la la music

La la la la la la music
La la la la la la music
La la la la la la music
La la la la la la music

Straight as a razor, kicking up dust
Digging through ditches and falling to rust
Taking me far, far as a rental car can go
Yea yea yea yea yea yea
Yea yea yea yea yea yea
 
The Song:

This remix of "Rental Car" was done by one of the Dust Brothers, John King. John has remixed for Beck before, doing a version of "Where It's At."

His take of "Rental Car" is a slower, moodier piece with piles of synthesizers setting the pace.
