Life On Mars
It’s a god-awful small affair,
to the girl with the mousy hair,
but her mommy is yelling "no",
and her daddy has told her to go,
but her friend is nowhere to be seen,
as she walks through her sunken dream,
to the seat with the clearest view,
and she’s hooked to the silver screen,
but the film is a saddening bore,
’cause she’s lived it ten times or more,
she could spit in the eyes of fools,
as they ask her to focus on,
sailors fighting in a dance hall,
oh man!look at those cavemen go,
it’s the freakiest show,
take a look at the lawman beating up the wrong guy,
oh man!wonder if he’ll ever know,
he’s in the best selling show,
is there life on mars?
it’s on america’s tortured brow,
mickey mouse has grown up a cow,
now the workers have struck for fame,
’cause lennons on sale again,
see the mice in thier million hordes,
but to the ibeza to the norfolk broads,
rule britannia is out of bounds,
to my mother,my dog,and clouds,
but the film is a saddening bore,
’cause I wrote it ten times before,
it’s about to be writ again,
as I ask you to focus on,
sailors fighting in the dance hall,
oh man!look at those cavemen go,
it’s the freakiest show,
take a look at the lawman beating up the wrong guy,
oh man!wonder if he’ll ever know,
he’s in the best selling show,
is there life on mars?
