Jefferson Airplane - Eat Starch Mom lyrics

He's just an American boy

And he loves his machine

No back-talk from a machine

When was the last time a television set

Gave you shit about who you met last night?

No back-talk machine

If your motor doesn't turn over smooth for you

You don't feed it right

Give it a little grease

Give it a little gas

Drive straight on through the night

Man-made mechanical mover

Love your machine

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

I don't care if there's chemicals in it

As long as my lettuce is crisp

Preservatives might just be preserving you

I think that's something you missed

Ya you missed it

Man-made mechanical mover

I love his machine

He's just an American boy

And I love his machine

Smooth moving steel

Keep your engine warm and wet

Be friendly to your steel

Feed it right, your mechanical pet

Then get behind the wheel

Put a little starch in the old Corvette

Then give it a feel

Smooth moving steel, give it a feel

Man-made mechanical mover

It'll move faster than you can

Vegetable lover
