BUILD A SHIP TO MARS (Joey Molland)
[from Return To Memphis CD - recorded 2012 - released U.S. 2013]

They tell you that it's time to go
Thinking that it's right
Believing every word they say
And praying every night
Though they take their time and think
And listen to their hearts
They tell you that it's time to go
You gotta do your part

The moolah says it's time to fight
Thinking that he's right
Believing every word he says
And praying every night
And though he takes his time to think
And listens to his heart
He tells you that it's time to die
You gotta do your part

In the meantime
Dreaming every night
In the meantime
Dreaming every night

I'm thinking we should all sit down
The moolah and the man
And try to make some sense of time
Try to understand
What made our God so angry
And listen to our hearts
I'm thinking we should all sit down
And build a ship to Mars
Build a ship to Mars
Build a ship to Mars
Build a ship to Mars
Build a ship to Mars
