Life on Mars

It's a god-awful small affair to the girl with the mousy hair But her mother is yelling "No" and her father as 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 For 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 the dance hall Oh man! look at those cavemen go, it's a freakest 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 Amerika's tortured brow Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow Now the workers have struck for fame Cause Lennon's on sale again See the mice in their million hordes From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads Rule Brittania is out of bounds To my mother, my dog and clowns 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 ....
