Jefferson Airplane — Eat Starch Mom

[Verse 1] He's just an American boy He loves his machine No back talk from a machine When was the last time a television set Gave you any shit about Who you met last night? No back talk from a machine Now if your motor doesn't turn over for you, well You don't feed it right Give it a little grease Give it a little gas Drive straight on through the night [Chorus] Man-made mechanical mover Love your machine [Verse 2] You say nothing's right but natural things Ah, you fool Poison oak is a natural plant Why don't you put some in your food? Natural food makes you slow and stupid and it tastes like cabbage I don't care if there's chemicals in it As long as my lettuce is crisp Preservatives might be preserving you all I think that's something you might've– Oh, I think you might've missed it Yeah, you missed it [Chorus] Man-made mechanical mover And I love his machine, yeah Smooth-moving steel [Bridge] He's just an American man And he loves his machine Oh, no back talk from a machine And I love his machine It's a smooth-moving steel [Verse 3] Well, now, keep your engine warm and wet Be friendly to your steel Feed it right Mechanical pet And then get behind the wheel Put a little starch in the old Corvette And then, uh, give it a feel Oooh, smooth-moving steel Give it a feel [Chorus] Man-made mechanical mover It'll move faster than you can Vegetable lover
