Sly & The Family Stone - Plastic Jim lyrics

All the plastic people What do they all come for? Plastic Jim All his thoughts have faded He cannot be degraded 'Cause all his friends are jaded Plastic Jim Plastic Jim For 13 years of school Might have a swimming pool He just cannot be cool Plastic Jim Plastic Jim He can't control his mind Twice a week he's kind The rest of the time he's lyin' Plastic Jim All the plastic people What do they all come for? Plastic Jim Will give you a conversation To avoid a situation That needs contemplation Plastic Jim Plastic Jim With the cellophane smile Ain't never been a problem child But he will be after a while Plastic Jim Plastic Jim Will take a blind man's gla**es Will steal a dead man's ashes When his ego crashes Plastic Jim All the plastic people What do they all come for?
