Ella Fitzgerald — Two Little Men in a Flying Saucer

[Verse 1] 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" [Bridge] 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" [Verse 2] Two little men in a flying saucer Just didn't care to stay (No, no) Said, "It's too peculiar here" Headed for the stratosphere And quickly flew away [Bridge] 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 (Gabble, gabble, gabble) But they departed faster than they started 'Cause the holler blew them sky high [Verse 3] 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" [Bridge] 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" [Verse 4] Two little men in a flying saucer Just didn't care to stay (No, no) Crossed a crowded thoroughfare Saw the hats the women wear And quickly flew away (Woo, woo) And quickly flew away (Woo) One look and then they flew away [Outro] Two little men in a flying saucer Two little men in a flying saucer Two little men in a flying saucer Two little men in a flying saucer
