Frank believes that all the world's problems can be solved if people simply switch to bicycles for transportation

And like Brendan Behan and Bertolt Brecht, Parker uses songs to comment on the action - all original except for the classic Bicycle Built for Two, sung by Frank to his girlfriend Daisy
