Postcard
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you happen to live on Mars
Then I'm from Outer Space
Where we drive around in cars
And talk right out of our face
We walk around on feet
And we fly around in planes
There's this stuff called food we eat
And think with these things called brains
Greetings from the Planet Earth
To the many worlds in the Universe
Wish you were here
Hope you can come
We'll have some intergalactic fun
If you happen to live on Mercury
Then I'm an alien
And I'm in a real big hurry
To see a spaceship come sailing in
I look out the window and wonder
Who's wondering back from the stars
And I love to hear the thunder
So everyone hum a few bars
Greetings from the Planet Earth
To the many worlds in the Universe
Wish you were here
Hope you can come
We'll have some intergalactic fun
