Ella Fitzgerald - Two little men in a flying saucer - single version lyrics

Two little men in a flying saucer flew down to Earth one day Looked to left and right of it, couldn't stand the sight of it and said let's fly away They took a look at a Western movie, somebody heard them say If a horse can be a star, think how dumb the people are We'd better fly away Then they shook their little green antennas, scratched their purple hair Said this planet is an awful menace, let's go back to where we came from Two little men in a flying saucer just didn't care to stay Said it's too peculiar here, headed for the stratosphere and quickly flew away Now they took a left in Ebbets Field in Brooklyn when the Dodgers played a baseball game Heard all the screaming, said we must be dreaming ‘cause this planet is insane During intermission, heard a politician making speeches as they traveled by But they departed faster than they started ‘cause the holler blew them sky high Two little men in a flying saucer flew down to Earth one day Listened to a radio, saw a television show and said let's fly away They got their fill of commercial jingles and they were heard to say All the people seem to be living in a nursery we'd better fly away Traveled all around and once they'd seen us said let's head for space We were better off on Mars and Venus, goodness what a place to live in Two little men in a flying saucer just didn't care to stay Crossed a crowded thoroughfare, saw the hats the women wear and quickly flew away And quickly flew away
