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
