Everything I Know About Mars I Have Learnt From Popular Music...

I wonder what Spring is like there? (and on Jupiter, but not in that order)

We know she’s not from there, or the Pleiads - because she came from Planet C…

It’s really red…what more can I say?

Damn right.

That’s what I hate about the Dope. You plan to post something reasonably obscure, and there it is already. :stuck_out_tongue:

(And five minutes ago I referenced this in a GD thread.)

All good ones, but what I’d really like answer:

Is there life on Mars?

But is she from one of the seven stars that shine at 3:30 in the morning?

Nothing ever happens on Mars; no sports or entertainment, no swinging bars . . . Boring! Boring! Boring! Boring!

but she isn’t!

a guy named Bruce told me that Mars once bent a tent…

In the land of Mars,
All the ladies smoke cigars.
Every puff they take
Is enough to kill a snake.
When the snakes are dead,
They take diamonds from their heads.
When the diamonds break…
It is 1968 (???)
I have no idea where those lyrics originated (or if they are the actual lyrics or corrupted), but my brothers & I used to sing this all the time when we were wee young’uns (early 70s.)

We had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
Meeting all the groovy people
We’ve rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We’re space truckin’ round the the stars

The Spaceship Superstar is at the top of all the charts on Mars, and always sells out in advance at the Martian Astrobowl.

Prism, “Spaceship Superstar,” lyrics are here.

{shakes fist at Leaffan} Alright, in a similar vein:

Out past Mars there ain’t no speed limits.
