Come on now... Everybody sing along! 
Truckload of Art by Terry Allen as covered by Ironic Mullet (aka Cracker; formerly Camper Van Beethoven)
A truckload of art from New York City Was hauling a weighty load The driver was singing, The sunset was pretty, But the truck turned over and it rolled off the road
[CHORUS] Yeah the truckload of art, it's burning near the highway Precious objects are scattered all over the ground It's a terrible sight, if a person were to see it But there weren't nobody around
[YODELING] Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
The driver went sailing high in the sky Landed in the cold lap of the Lord Who smiled and then said: "Son, you're better off dead Than hauling a truckload full of hot avant garde"
[CHORUS] Yeah the truckload of art, it's burning near the highway Precious objects are scattered all over the ground It's a terrible sight, if a person were to see it But there weren't nobody around
[REPEAT YODELING HOO HOOs]
Yeah some important artwork was thrown to the ground Tragically landing in the weeds And the smoke could be seen from miles all around But nobody knows what it means
[CHORUS] Yeah the truckload of art is burning near the highway And a tough job for the highway patrol Who'll soon see the smoke, come running to poke Dig an empty ditch, throw the arts in a hole
[REPEAT YODELING HOO HOOs]
[CHORUS] Yeah the truckload of art is burning near the highway And it's raging far out of control What the critics had cheered is now shattered and queered And there's no more reviews as it's strewed on the road
[CHORUS] Yeah the truckload of art, it's burning near the highway Precious objects are scattered all over the ground It's a terrible sight, if a person were to see it But there weren't nobody around

PS: One of the best damn bands of the past twenty years...
Duck! It's those goddamned winged lizards again!
