Wait a minute! The original inspiration for ‘Hot Wheels?’

This wheel’s on fire, Rolling down the road, Best notify my next of kin, This wheel shall explode!

A caveman probably wouldn’t be named Og. The most common syllable structure is consonant-vowel. So “Go” is more likely.

A caveman could understand rock, but I guess they can’t understand anything as metal as a flaming wheel.

Mankind always finds some murderous application for new rechnology

And thus, Hot Wheels were invented.

Fire good, Bird good, Firebird good.

The inspiration for “Ring of fire”..?

But it gives me some great inspiration for a song!

Fair enough.
