there are lollipops on mars
tasty treats for the hungry
awaiting anyone that hungers
blue, red, polka dot
and dragonflies of Lunar
eat spoonfulls of sugar
lying to you
lying to me
about the shortage of cash
a life so brash
and lollipops are so sweet
take the smell away
from dirty feet
walking on the planet
of Lunar
and cats cry
eating the sardines again
tuna is all they want
but they would give a gizzard
for some good old-fashioned meat
beef jerky
for jerks
and the stink bug
dies of a Jitterbug dance
waiting for a worm sandwich
and the cats cry
while Elton sings
a gizzard sandwich
for the beasts
old-fashioned meat
and they have the nerve
to reject lollipops on mars
sweet treats for everyone
high on meat
a protein buzz
of fish flie
from the auto windows
and the lollipops never win
with tough-looking men
that want a meat sandwich
