Lyrics The Undertones – Mars Bars

I need a Mars Bar
Hey, raid the Spar
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar

I never eat my dinner
I push away the plate
You can see I’m getting thinner
Because I just can’t wait

I need a Mars Bar
Hey, raid the Spar
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar
I’ve had 10 so far
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play

To Patrick Moore and David Bowie
And all the other stars
There’s evidence here to show you
That there’s life on Mars

I need a Mars Bar
Hey, raid the Spar
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar
I’ve had 10 so far
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play

There’s glucose for energy

I need a Mars Bar
Hey, raid the Spar
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar
I’ve had 10 so far
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play

To anybody out there who still eats Twix?
Anybody on packets of Buttons?
I gave them up when I was six
I hope your teeth are rotten

I need a Mars Bar
Hey, raid the Spar
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar
I’ve had 10 so far
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play
It helps me — makes me — work rest and play

Work, rest and play
