G D7
I filled the house with gadgets so you’d never have to slave
G
And now you’re out two-timing me with time I helped you save
C
The place is full of buttons that you push for every chore
D7 G
But when you push your pop around you won’t push anymore
D7
Automatic Mama you operate too fast
G
Slow down you’ll wind up with your heart in a cast
C
Automatic Mama be careful what you do
D7 G
Those new contraptions will be the death of you
D7
I bought a handy gadget that leaves dishes high and dry
G
And keeps your hands like velvet for some other lucky guy
C
I found another gadget to speed up the kitchen stove
D7 G
Now papa knows what’s cooking and he’s burning while you rove
D7
Automatic Mama you operate too fast
G
Slow down you’ll wind up with your heart in a cast
C
Automatic Mama be careful what you do
D7 G
Those new contraptions will be the death of you
D7
That new electric washer made your headaches disappear
G
You used to hang out washing now you hang out drinking beer
C
Your fancy vacuum cleaner picks up dirt the easy way
D7 G
But I picked up some dirt myself here’s all I got to say
D7
Automatic Mama you operate too fast
G
Slow down you’ll wind up with your heart in a cast
C
Automatic Mama be careful what you do
D7 G
Those new contraptions will be the death of you
