My Mother The Car Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody knows in the second life
We all come back sooner or later
As anything from a pussy cat
To a man-eatin' alligator
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, you may think my story
Is more fiction that it's fact
But believe it or not, my mother dear
Decided she'd come back
[Chorus]
As a car, she's my very own guiding star
A 1928 Porter, that's my mother dear
She helps me through everything I do
And I'm so glad she's here
[Verse 2]
Well, everything my daddy never was
Well, now she wants me to be
She's taken her place as the fifth member
Of my small family
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And she'll blow her radiator
When things ain't goin' right
And whenever she gets too lonely
We just all gotta spend the night
Everybody knows in the second life
We all come back sooner or later
As anything from a pussy cat
To a man-eatin' alligator
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well, you may think my story
Is more fiction that it's fact
But believe it or not, my mother dear
Decided she'd come back
[Chorus]
As a car, she's my very own guiding star
A 1928 Porter, that's my mother dear
She helps me through everything I do
And I'm so glad she's here
[Verse 2]
Well, everything my daddy never was
Well, now she wants me to be
She's taken her place as the fifth member
Of my small family
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And she'll blow her radiator
When things ain't goin' right
And whenever she gets too lonely
We just all gotta spend the night
[Chorus]
With my car, she's my very own guiding star
A 1928 Porter, that's my mother dear
She helps me through everything I do
And I'm so glad she's here
[Outro]
My mother the car
Whoa, my mother the car
My mother the car
My mother the car
(My mother the car)
I was wondering
Do you think we could chip in
And get an XK150?
With my car, she's my very own guiding star
A 1928 Porter, that's my mother dear
She helps me through everything I do
And I'm so glad she's here
[Outro]
My mother the car
Whoa, my mother the car
My mother the car
My mother the car
(My mother the car)
I was wondering
Do you think we could chip in
And get an XK150?
