LET’S GO TO MARS words and music Lenny Solomon
© L. Solomon 2006 key A capo2
Why is there all this whining, ‘bout everything I do
Don’t care about my ratings, who elected me is you
So you’ve got no insurance, can’t afford to drive your car
If you just had some character and faith you could go far
You see it’s not my problem, that hole that you’re stuck in
You had it coming to you, for living life in sin
Chorus-Let’s go to Mars, forget about your cares
Let’s go to Mars, we’ll bring a case of beer
Let’s go to Mars, bet the hunting’s good
I’ll bag me one of those aliens
Mount him on my hood
Let’s go to Mars, no global warming there
Let’s go to Mars, we can pollute the air
Let’s go to Mars, be first to touch that soil
Plant me a flag, so we can drill for oil
Don’t bring up that dirty war I started in Iraq
It’s liable to upset me, better not do that
When you criticize me, it just hurts our troops
Who are defending all my interests, while dying in their boots
You enemy combatant, I’ll give you a what for
Ship you to Guantanamo, then I’ll slam the door
Chorus
I’m still the toast of Texas, just ask in any bar
Though I screwed the country, they still think that I’m a star
Here neighbors trust their neighbors, that’s why I tap their phone
It keeps their freedom ringing, and I feel less alone
Even though I love ‘em, that’s just where I’m at
Besides a rumor has it, that one’s a Democrat
Chorus
