Life On Mars - Barbra Streisand

It's a god-awful small affair 
To the girl with the mousy hair 
But her mother is yelling "No" 
And her daddy has told her to go 
But her friend is nowhere to be seen 
As 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 a 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 cavemen go
It's the freakiest show, 
Take a look at the 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 America's tortured brow 
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 Britannia is out of bounds 
To my mother, my dog, and clowns, 
But the film is a saddening bore 
'Cause I wrote it ten times before 
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 cavemen go
It's the freakiest show, 
Take a look at the 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?
