"She Has Funny Cars" is a song by the American rock group Jefferson Airplane. Vocalist Marty Balin wrote the lyrics, while guitarist Jorma Kaukonen supplied the music. The song appeared as the opening track on their breakthrough album, Surrealistic Pillow (1967).
The lyrics reflect on materialism in American society. In a song review for AllMusic, Matthew Greenwald commented:
The song features Jack Casady on fuzz bass. Balin sings the first part with Grace Slick's contrasting second part.[2]
