That's why it's so awful! By leaving him with such a vehicle, she has
stolen his self respect as well.
And I suppose you are right, subtlety is wrong in such a song. I would
have to spell out how the tires got flat - gun - bang x 3 - get it? Gal,
gun, pickup and dog-gone. And the Toyota is a crappy little hatchback,
no bed, no gun rack. This guy is going to flush himself down the
outhouse. :-)
