[Verse 1]
F Am Cm
It's a god awful small affair
D
To the girl with the mousy hair
Gm A# C
But her mummy is yelling "No"
F
And her daddy has told her to go
F Am Cm
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
D
Now she walks through her sunken dream.
Gm A# C
To the seat with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
[Pre Chorus]
G# E Fm
But the film is a saddening bore
G#
For she's lived it ten times or more
C# A A#m
She could spit in the eyes of fools
C#
As they ask her to focus on
[Chorus]
A# D#
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Gm F# F
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
Fm Cm
It's the freakiest show
D#m A#
Take a look at the lawman
D#
Beating up the wrong guy
Gm F#
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
F Fm Cm
He's in the best selling show
D#m Gm F# A# C
Is there life on Mars?
[Bridge]
F F#m Gm Dm Am A# A#m
[Verse 2]
F Am Cm
It's on Amerika's tortured brow
D
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Gm A# C
Now the workers have struck for fame
F
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
F Am Cm
See the mice in their million hordes
D
From Ibeza to the norfolk broads
Gm A# C
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
[Pre Chorus]
G# E Fm
But the film is a saddening bore
G#
For I've writ it ten times or more
C# A A#m
It's about to be writ again
C#
As I ask you to focus on
[Chorus]
A# D#
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Gm F# F
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
Fm Cm
It's the freakiest show
D#m A#
Take a look at the lawman
D#
Beating up the wrong guy
Gm F#
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
F Fm Cm
He's in the best selling show
D#m Gm F# A# C
Is there life on Mars?
