MOLLY THE MOOSE ON MARS

Molly the Moose was doing just fine

Dancing around in the Canada pines

when she saw a sign that captured her attention

It said, “Wanted: one brave girl

who can  blast off

out of this world”

What kind of girl the sign failed to mention

See, Molly's a moose and and a moose can't be an astronaut

but that's not what Molly thought

she thought--

Molly the Moose on Mars

Molly the Moose on Mars

Keep your hooves on the ground

and reach for the stars

Molly the Moose on Mars

Molly the Moose went to apply

You should've seen the look in their eyes

when a great big moose sat down in the lobby

The interview came, molly did well

She was smooth, she was smart, she remembered to tell

how watching the stars had always been her hobby

Molly the Moose got a big space suit and they cheered her name

the day the countdown came

(countdown)

Molly the Moose on Mars

Molly the Moose on Mars

Believe in your dreams

whatever they are

Molly the Moose on Mars

High in space

she looked down on the Earth

A perfect blue planet

growing smaller in the distance

She thought of the lakes and the hills and the streams

and she thought of her mother's face

What a precious place

Molly the Moose landed on mars

She rambled around on her red rover car

She looked for clues

if there once was life there

She sampled the dust and the light from the sun

She said, “I love this job because science is fun!”

A month went by

It was time to go

Molly splashed down on Earth as a smile lit up her face

Back in her favorite place

Molly the Moose on Mars

Molly the Moose on Mars

Wherever you roam

there’s no place like home

Let’s all salute

Molly the Moose
