Mission To Mars

(album: Tornillo - 2022)

Well there's acid rain falling and it's killing up all my bean fields
It's got me contemplating revelation speaking on the seven seals
Life down here's getting pretty hard
Think it's time I start my own damn mission to Mars
Cause these rich folks talking about going into outer space
But a poor man like me won't have enough dough to ever leave this place
So as I look up at the stars think it's time to start my own damn mission to Mars

And I'll be riding on a comet I'm anti-gravity
That ole man in the moon you know he ain't got nothing on me
So I shoot him the bird as I fly by there ain't no such thing as being too high
And out here in the woods is a damn fine place to start
I'm the captain of this rocket ship I'm on my own mission to Mars

I'll be cruising through space like a modern day Han Solo
I'll be the only one there in a stetson hat and a bolo
Got some hydroponic and cuban cigars think it's time I start my own damn mission to Mars

And I'll be riding on a comet I'm anti-gravity
That ole man in the moon you know he ain't got nothing on me
So I shoot him the bird as I fly by there ain't no such thing as being too high
Out here in the woods is a damn fine place to start
I'm the captain of this rocket ship I'm on my own mission to Mars

I'll be pouring em tall and burning em down
I won't have to go anywhere for my boots to leave the ground
No rocket fuel flying cars think it's time I start my own damn mission to Mars
And all I'll need is a little spark think it's time I start my own damn mission to Mars
