Dodge Veg-O-Matic - Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers

I’m gonna tell you 'bout the car that I just bought

It’s that Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot

Well, I’m gonna tell you 'bout the car that I now own

Well it doesn’t go nowhere, it just stays all alone

You know, I like it

You know, I like it a whole lot

Well, that’s my Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You know, I like it

You know, I like to watch it rot

(I don’t know why)

I’m gonna tell you 'bout a car you’d best not buy

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

The brakes’ll fall off and you will sigh

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

I’m gonna tell you 'bout a car that you won’t like

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You had best stay home, sir, better take your bike

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

I like it

I like it a lot

Because it’s my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it’s there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it’s there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You know, I like it, though, yes, I like it a lot

Tell 'em

Well, I’ll meet you at seven in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

We can all just stand by my car, you know, and watch it rot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

Well, I’ll see you now at seven, sir, don’t be late

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

We’ll stand there and watch my car vegetate

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You know, I like it

You know, I like it a lot

(let's do another verse)

Well, go ahead and buy it, don’t listen to me, go ahead and do it

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You’ll have it home five minutes and you’ll know you blew it

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

See, the brakes are made of glass and tires are made of vinyl

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You’ll want to take it back find out that all sales are final

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

You know, I like it, though

I like this car a lot

My Dodge Veg-O-Matic, it’s there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

It’s my Dodge Veg-O-Matic, there in the parking lot

(Dodge Veg-O-Matic there in the parking lot)

Well, you know, I like it

I like it a lot
