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
Now she walks through a 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 eyse of fools
As they ask her 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?
It's on America's tortured brow
That 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 hoards
From Ibetha to the Norfolk Boards
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
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?
