Venus And Mars Rock Show Lyrics By Wings

    venus and mars
    sitting in the stand of the sports arena
    waiting for the show to begin
    red lights green lights strawberry wine
    a good friend of mine follows the stars
    venus and mars are alright tonight

    rock show
    what that man holding in his hand
    he looks a lot like a guy i knew way back when
    it’s silly willy with the philly band
    could be oo ee
    what’s that man movin’ cross the stage
    it looks a lot like the one used by jimmy page
    it’s like a relic from a different age
    could be oo ee

    if there’s a rock show at the concertgebouw
    they’ve got long hair at the madison square
    you’ve got rock and roll at the hollywood bowl
    we’ll be there oh yeah

    the lights go down they’re back in town o k
    behind the stacks you glimpse an axe
    the tension mounts you score an ounce ole
    temperatures rise as you see the whites of their eyes

    if there’s a rock show at the concertgebouw
    they’ve got long hair at the madison square
    you’ve got rock and roll at the hollywood bowl
    we’ll be there oh yeah

    in my green metal suit i’m preparing to shoot up the city
    and the ring at the end of my nose makes me look rather pretty
    it’s a pity there’s nobody here to witness the end
    save for my dear old friend and confidante madamoiselle kitty

    yeah tell me
    what’s the man movin’ to and fro
    that decibel meter doesn’t seem to be reading low
    but they was louder at the rainbow
    could be oo ee

    jet
    jet i can almost remember their funny faces
    that time you told me that
    you were going to be marrying soon
    and jet i thought the only
    lonely place was on the moon
    jet jet
    jet was your father as bold as a sergeant major
    how come he told you that
    you were hardly old enough yet
    and jet i thought the major
    was a lady suffragette
    jet jet
    ah mater want jet to always love me
    ah mater want jet to always love me
    ah mater much later
    oh she said
    oh she said
    oh yeah
    jet with the wind in your hair of a thousand laces
    climb on the back and we’ll
    go for a ride in the sky
    and jet don’t you know that i
    i thought you was a little lady suffragette
    jet jet
