The line comes from 'Once in a Lifetime', the 1980 Talking Heads single from the album Remain in Light, written by David Byrne with Brian Eno and the band. In the song Byrne rattles through the trappings of a comfortable suburban life, a beautiful house and a large automobile, as the narrator wonders how it all happened. The track became one of the band's signature songs, helped by its twitchy music video, and decades later its lyrics became a bottomless source of memes about success, confusion and adult life.

David Byrne sings 'where is that large automobile' in this clip from Talking Heads' 'Once in a Lifetime'. Creators use it for car reveals and flex edits.
This two-second vocal snippet captures David Byrne mid-question in Talking Heads' 'Once in a Lifetime', delivering the line 'where is that large automobile' in his unmistakable clipped, half-spoken cadence. The delivery is dry and slightly bewildered, sitting somewhere between a genuine question and an existential shrug, with the band's jittery new-wave groove implied just behind it. Dropped into an edit, it lands like a punchline to success itself, making any car, house or lifestyle flex feel absurdly self-aware. Listeners recognize the lyric instantly, and that recognition turns a simple brag into a joke about how strange having it all can feel.
