Bm Bbaug  D     E


[Verse 1]

A          C#m/G#                    Gdim7
   It's a god-awful small affair
           F#7
To the girl with the mousy hair
Bm         Bbaug                  D
   But her mummy is yelling "No"
          E
And her daddy has told her to go
A          C#m/G#                      Gdim7
   But her friend is nowhere to be seen
           F#7
Now she walks through her sunken dream.
Bm         Bbaug                       D
   To the seat with the clearest view
           E
And she's hooked to the silver screen


[Pre-Chorus]

Eaug        E                         Am
    But the film is a saddening bore
               Bb
cause she's seen it ten times or more
F          A                          Dm
She could spit in the eyes of fools
         D#
As they ask her to focus on


[Chorus]

D          G
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Bm7       Bbaug                  A
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
Am                   Em7
  It's the freakiest show
Gm7                     D
    Take a look at the lawman
G
Beating up the wrong guy
Bm         Bbaug                   A
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
Am                           Em7
   He's on the best selling show
Gm7                   Bm7       Bbaug   D    E
    Is there life on Mars?


[Verse 2]

A          C#m/G#                    Gdim7
   It's on America's tortured brow
            F#7
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Bm         Bbaug                         D
   Now the workers have struck for fame
       E
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
A          C#m/G#                      Gdim7
   See the mice with their million hordes
         F#7
   From Ibiza to the norfolk broads
Bm         Bbaug                     D
   Rule Britannia is out of bounds
      E
To my mother, my dog, and clowns


[Pre-Chorus]

Eaug        E                           Am
    But the film is a saddening bore
               Bb
cause she writ it ten times or more
F            A                    Dm
    It's about to be writ again
             D#
As I ask you to focus on


[Chorus]

D          G
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Bm7       Bbaug                  A
Oh man! look at those cavemen go
Am                   Em7
  It's the freakiest show
Gm7                     D
    Take a look at the lawman
G
Beating up the wrong guy
Bm         Bbaug                   A
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
Am                           Em7
   He's in the best selling show
Gm7                   Bm7       Bbaug   D    E
    Is there life on Mars?
F#                        D
      Is there life on Mars?
