It's a god-awful small affair To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mommy is yelling メNoモ And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now 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 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 caveman go It's the freakiest show
Take a look at 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 Americas 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 hordes
From Ibeza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Brittania is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns

But the film is 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 caveman go It's the freakiest show
Take a look at 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?
