MARS? DON'T GO THERE

I traveled to Mars, and there wasn't much scenery there,

Just a sickly coconut tree and a small koala bear,

No place good to eat,

No one served fresh meat,

There was a cheap, beauty shop, where they washed and permed my hair.

CARTER THE ROCKETEER, SWEET DREAMS OLD CHAP

Carter got a degree in rockets, so he could sail them into the sky,

Carter used only dynamite for fuel, and it propelled the pieces, high,

Carter dreamed his pieces would reach Mars,

Then maybe pass by some distant stars,

When dear Carter's fuel blew him away, the coroner wondered, how and why?

BIG BANG PRAWN

There was a major impact on my front lawn,

It was a strange creature from the Big Bang dawn,

His name was Barry,

He was real scary,

He breathed out fire, and was shaped like a prawn.

Martian Drones Are Here Shopping For Christmas🎄🎁

There was a mystery drone that landed on my trailer house,

The drone crushed in the roof a bit, and caused an "eek!", from a mouse,

I snuck outside for a peek,

The drone was taking a leak,

The drone said it was shopping for a Christmas gift, a blouse.

ME AND FRED AND THE ALIEN DRONE

I had a drone fly into my bedroom, and hover over my head,

It was definitely from outer space, just like the internets said,

It had many feet with toes,

It was scented like a rose,

Then it pulled out a ray gun, and united me with my dead dog, Fred.

MOON MONSTER PUTS ASTRONAUT ON HIATUS, FOREVER

I walked all the way to Tranquility Base,

There, a mean moon monster got into my face,

Feeling real tough that day,

I told him to run away,

It's ten years since I vanished, without a trace.

MY QUEST FOR A NEW HOME WORLD

Mars, the dead red planet, is real dusty,

It makes my white spaceship, look all rusty,

Mars is far and away,

A place I will not stay,

I'm off to a world that's ice crusty.

TOWARD THE MOON AND BACK

I accepted a mission, to sail all the way to the moon,

I postulated I could get there, with a hot air balloon,

Like missions of the past,

My balloon did not last,

I quickly plunged to the earth, landing in a seaside sand dune.

CAPTAIN MANGO TOO

There was a starship captain, named Captain Mango Too,

Everywhere the Captain went, he brought along his crew,

One night drinking on planet Mars,

They all got in fights at the bars,

They woke next day in a jail cell, all drenched in puke and poo.

DON'T VISIT OFF WORLDERS, UNLESS YOU'RE INVITED

My big brother was vaporized, out in space,

He went calling there, upon an alien race,

There was a picture pattern,

Way out on planet Saturn,

But the aliens didn't like my brother's face.

MY SPACE TRAVEL ADVENTURE

I was in my spacecraft, traveling at the speed of light,

I should have installed some headlamps, so I could see at night,

I ran into a saber-toothed space-bear,

Cracked open my ship, and leaked out my air,

Space bear will eat me, and I do not think it is alright.

MY SPACESHIP CRASHED, AGAIN

Because I used repurposed tin,

My spaceship fell apart again,

No trip out to Mars,

Let alone the stars,

A crashing spaceship is no win.

THE TRAPEZOID.

I was watching a big meteor flying at us from the sky,

It was quite apparent that soon it would hit us, and we would die,

Then a bright spaceship appeared,

It was trapezoid, so weird,

The spaceship laser-beamed the meteor, it blew apart, oh my!

ON THE COMPANY DIME, MARS WAS A GOOD TIME

I rode a great big spaceship all the way to Mars,

To write an article on their electric cars,

I went to my Martian hotel,

To rest there for a little spell,

Then I went out to the Martian nightclubs and bars.

THE PARANOIDAL UNIVERSE

There are two parallel universes; one paranoid, one that's not

I live in the paranoid one, where every action is a plot,

What fortunes I would gladly give,

If In the other I could live,

Maybe I can get over there, if I sneak and lie and scheme a lot.

TIME TRAVELS WITH MORRIS

Morris bought a used time machine, but his time travels did not last,

Morris was eaten by a dinosaur, back in the distant past,

The dinosaur thought Morris yummy,

He put Morris in the dino tummy,

The dino got indigestion, because he ate his food too fast.

AFTER NOON, I WENT TO THE MOON

I decided to take a trip to the earth moon,

My new spaceship, and I and my dog, named Baboon,

My spaceship shifts by stick,

We rode it there real quick,

Partied with the natives, who hoped we'd be back soon.

WHAT MARTIANS WANT

I bought a large stretch of real estate on planet Mars,

I opened a dealership to sell electric cars,

The Martians would not buy,

Claimed the prices were high,

So I closed down, then opened some disco tech bars.  

SPACE MONSTERS CAN HURT

There's a monster outside my spaceship, and he is from cold, deep space,

I think he wants to eat me, or maybe mess up real bad, my face,

He has long, sharp teeth, to bite,

Long claws to scratch out my sight,

I am wishing right now, I was way back home, by my fireplace.

PLANET TERRA POX DEPARTED

Jack went to the planet Terra Pox, and Jack got very sick

I think it was the tasty lox, that laid Jack down so quick,

Jack's belly gurgled, and up sprayed green,

I think I saw a piece of spleen,

We put Jack's bod in a box, marked the grave with a bent stick.
