Shoals of dead fish float on the lakes,
|
but Uncle Sam's on Mars
|
And science is making the same mistakes,
|
but Uncle Sam's on Mars
|
No one down here knows how to work the brakes,
|
but Uncle Sam's on Mars
|
|
Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on
|
Mars, he's on Mars
|
|
Layers of smoke in the atmosphere have made the earth
|
too hot to bear
|
The Earth might be a desert soon, America has left
|
the Moon
|
|
Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on
|
Mars, he's on Mars
|
|
He's digging for dreams in the red sand
|
He's got his bucket and spade in his left hand
|
He's digging for dreams
|
He's looking for life
|
|
What's he doing out there?
|
He's looking for life
|
Looking for life
|
There may be life out there
|

(Nixon to Armstrong - July 21st 1969:)
|
I'm talking to you by telephone from the Oval Room in the White House.
|
And this certainly must be the most exciting telephone
|
call ever made here on Earth. I just can't tell
|
you how proud we all are. For every American this
|
has to be the proudest day of their lives. And
|
for people all over the world, I'm sure they too
|
join with us in recognising what a tremendous
|
achievement this is. For one priceless moment
|
in the whole history of Man......

Construction works
|
And he's looking for life
|
Looking for life to wind up
|
He's looking for life to stamp out
|
He's looking for life to grind out
|
He's looking for life, so mind out
|
|
I hope you brought your credit card with you, and I hope you know how to
|
drive on these long, lonely freeways and intersections we've got up
|
here. We've got two cars in the garage, two cars in the garage, and
|
drum-majorettes in white ankle socks and baton twirling on Sundays.
|
We've got stripes and the stars and Uncle Sam's on, Uncle Sam's on, Uncle
|
Sam's on, Mars....
