David Bowie – Life On Mars Chords

It’s a god-awful small affair
To the girl with the mousy hair
But her mummy is yelling “No”
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is nowhere to be seen
Now 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 Amerika’s tortured brow
That 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.
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?
