Hawkwind - Uncle Sam's on Mars lyrics

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
And 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 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 he's looking for life

(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"

We're looking for life
We're looking for life
We're looking for life
We're looking for life

MacDonalds Hamburger 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

Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on Mars
Uncle Sam's on Mars, he's on Mars
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
