Plonk that into an autobox module (like perl5i and/or autobox::Core) and enjoying even more caddadadaddaaaaaring around!

For eg:

  use perl5i::2;

  sub autobox::Core::ARRAY::car { $_[0]->[0] }

  sub autobox::Core::ARRAY::cdr {
      my $last = $#{$_[0]};
      wantarray ? @{$_[0]}[1 .. $last] : [@{$_[0]}[1 .. $last]];
  }
then...

  my @a = 1..4;

  @a->car;             # 1
  @a->cdr->cdr->car;   # 3
  @a->cdr;             # 2, 3, 4

  my @x = @a->cdr;
  @x->cdr;             # 3, 4
