life on mars lyrics

Is there life on Mars girl
If there is I'd like to go there
Just like Elton John, the Rocketman
He sure bought some fucked up clothes there

I've heard it said that
Outer space is not the kind of place to raise your kids
But after my life so far here on Earth
I sure wish my parents did

I look up to the sky and I pray to the heavens
Won't someone come and take me away
Someone come and take me away to the stars, to the moon
Please make it soon, oh yeah

The aliens landed in Roswell
And the government hid them so no one could see
It happens every week on the X-Files
So why can't it happen to me

So yes, I might miss a couple friends
And summer barbecues on the weekends
Another 40,000 coming every day
So take me away I've got nothing to lose
Nike shoes, black jumpsuits, shaven heads and purple blankets

Won't someone come and take me away
Someone come and take me away
To the stars, to the moon
Please make it soon, oh yeah

Beam me up
Stray me down
Probe my brain
Cure my boredom

Won't someone come and take me away
Somehow come and take me away
To the stars, to the moon
Just make it soon
Someone come and take me away
Someone come and take me away
