I am a machine
How 'bout that
I ought to run lean
But I am not clean
Ran over a cat
Made quite an impression
My passenger spat:
"That feline is flat"
Intake, compression
Ignition, exhaust
Here's my confession
(Oh what an obsession)
And what is the cost
For sweet release?
For toxins tossed?
Redeem what is lost
I ****, squeeze,
Bang, blow...
Forget to say please,
Run hot with ease
My fluids are low
I'm 'bout to run dry
A gasket might go
And oil won't flow
Oh why even try
This machine is obscene
My insides will fry
And soon I will die
Just playing with rhyme scheme

"**** squeeze bang blow" is how you remember the four stages of an automobile engine... Intake (****), Compression (squeeze), Ignition (bang), Exhaust (blow). I always loved that. The fact that it sounds **** really helps you remember. :)
