Sparks - I Married a MartianWell, I married a Martian
And boy, am I sorry.
Well, she came down from the sky
She couldn't stand the attitude there
She took human form, not bad!
She seemed different
She had a European flair
And I said, "where you from?"
And she said,... she said, "I'm from Mars."
I married a Martian
Her loving is different
Viva la difference
Every, every night.
I married a Martian
I took her to Vegas
I dressed her in ermine,*
She had the time of her life.
Though she called me 'Mister Right,'
I could sense something was wrong...
She was hardly home at all.
She'd keep telling me
She was doing studies of Earth...
She had tendencies to flirt
And it really did hurt me...
I married a Martian.
Boy, am I sorry...
I don't recommend it
To anyone in their right mind.
I married a Martian.
I think I see changes
I know I see changes
She doesn't look like our kind…
Her arms, her legs
Were growing, and growing
Her form, once thin
Was changing, was changing
I can't describe,
The changes, so gruesome!
She looked, she seemed
So Martian...
I married a Martian,
I'm going to Vegas
It isn't for pleasure...
I'm getting a quickie divorce.
I married a Martian,
And boy, am I sorry,
I don't recommend it
To anyone in their right mind.
I married a Martian
Who was I kidding?
She only had loved me,
'Cause I was the first guy she saw.
I married a Martian,
And now it is over.
Go back to your cronies,
Back to your own form of life.
I married a Martian,
They're good in the movies.
Dramatic potential,
But they're not so hot in real life.
