Buick
Appearance
Buick (/ˈbjuːɪk/) is a division of the American automobile manufacturer General Motors (GM). Started by automotive pioneer David Dunbar Buick, it was among the first American marques of automobiles, and was the company that established General Motors in 1908. Before the establishment of General Motors, GM founder William C. Durant had served as Buick's general manager and major investor. For much of its existence in the North American market, Buick has been marketed as a premium automobile brand, selling luxury vehicles positioned above GM's mainstream brands, while below the flagship luxury Cadillac division.

Of how it's gonna be

And gold ain't worth a dime
When they build a ship on waters
That will take you back in time
When the stars have all been counted
And I stop lovin' you

About what comes to pass
This old world may wear out
But my love's gonna last
If they ever build that highway to the moon
