(Grace Slick, Jorma Kaukonen) 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 Is 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 statch 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
