Things got pretty dark there and it looked like we were stuck

It's hard out in the desert when you're just a little duck

So we built ourselves a raft and we took it to the moon

'Though things got kind of rocky on those lunar afternoons



Then, oh no!

The waves are crashin' harder 

'Gainst our tiny boat that's drownin' in the water

Heard the captain say he hopes it will get better

We should not be sailing in such stormy weather



The martians had a picnic and they sent a telegram

I think they meant to call me "sir" but instead they called me "ma'am"

And most nights I stay in now and I stare up at the stars

Oh, how I miss the lost canals on that distant planet Mars



But, hey hey!

The water's flowin' faster

From my mother's fountain that my father made her

And all day I've been workin' on this letter

I've been tryin' and tryin' to say what I am after
