The Lyrics
Am I right or am I wrong?
I must find out 'fore too long
Were there Martians singing songs,
Long ago, in distant history?
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
In this world of wind and dust,
Is the truth beneath the crust?
I must find out, oh, I must,
Let me see, my Prez, let me see!
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
In the geologic past
Was there life 'til some comet blast?
Their death, was it slow or fast?
I must see, Mr. Prez, I must see!
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
When the long, long wait is o'er,
Into space I'll finally soar,
Where I'll land once was a shore
of some sea, some long-vanished sea.
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
I must find out 'fore too long
Were there Martians singing songs,
Long ago, in distant history?
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
In this world of wind and dust,
Is the truth beneath the crust?
I must find out, oh, I must,
Let me see, my Prez, let me see!
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
In the geologic past
Was there life 'til some comet blast?
Their death, was it slow or fast?
I must see, Mr. Prez, I must see!
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!
When the long, long wait is o'er,
Into space I'll finally soar,
Where I'll land once was a shore
of some sea, some long-vanished sea.
Just a trip to Mars from thee
Grant it, Prez, this is my plea
I have to know, did Mars have seas?
Let it be, dear Prez, let it be!

I got a better idea: Let's send Bush to Mars. Let the Republicans raise the money required to bring him back. They can dip into the money he raised for them in San Diego while New Orleans was drowning.
Bush must be a martian. 555
Mike, you know I am no Democrat, but I agree Bush has been a colossal disappointment. But it could be worse: you could live in a country that has to choose between Alan 7000% Inflation Garcia and Ollanta Humala, the Butcher of the Selva. Some things don't change when you move to another country! -- MM
