[Verse 1] Well it's good to be back on Moonbase-One I've been to Earth, it ain't much fun Now I'm here, I have to say I'm really sorry I went away. [Verse 2] The streets were crammed with garbage cans The smog’s so thick it slows the fans And people fight to stop the war While the President's men keep the score... but [Chorus] Life here is just a dream The view is great and the water's clean And I don't think I'll be going down again. No motor cars, no crowded bars Next weekend I'm going to Mars You know it beats a holiday in Spain. [Verse 3] Late at night when they cut the lights And the boys come in from the shuttle flights We grab a drink and have a 'smoke' or two And watch the Earth going down so blue. [Verse 4] The lunar scenes are something strange All the greys and greens of the mountain range I can't tell the thrill it brings I wouldn't trade it for anything... 'cause [Chorus] Life here is just a dream The view is great and the water's clean And I don't think I'll be going down again. No motor cars, no crowded bars Next weekend I'm going to Mars You know it beats a holiday in Spain. [Instrumental Saxophone solo] [Chorus] 'Cause life here is just a dream The view is great and the water's clean And I don't think I'll be going down again. No motor cars, no crowded bars Next weekend I'm going to Mars You know it beats a holiday in Spain… And I'm not going down again. La da da da-da da de da Do-doot’n do-de-doot doot’n-doot - zahhh!!!
