Life on Mars? (Uncut)

Lyrics

It's a God, awful small affair
 To the girl with the mousy hair
 But her mummy is yelling, "No"
 While her daddy has told her to go
 Now, her friend is nowhere to be seen
 As she walks through her sunken dream
 To the seat with the clearest view
 As she walks to the silver screen
 But the film is a saddenin' bore
 'Cause she's watched 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 the freakiest show
 Take a look at the Lawman
 Beatin' 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
 And the workers have struck for fame
 'Cause Lennon's on sale again
 See the mice in their million hordes
 From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
 Rule Britannia is out of bounds
 To my mother, my dog and clowns
 But the film is a saddenin' 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
 Beatin' up the wrong guy
 Oh man, wonder if he'll ever know
 He's in the best sellin' show
 Is there life on Mars?
