[Verse]
When I woke up this morning
Much to my surprise
The sun was going down
And I was still alive
I looked into the mirror
And according to my eyes
The martians have invaded
It's hopeless

I went to see my doctor
To ask him what to do
Depending on the diagnosis
I said, "doc, I'm seeing double
And how are both of you?
No cause for alarm, it's hopeless

You don't stand a chance, it's hopeless
Everybody dance!

Well, there's paradise and doomsday
It depends on which comes first
There's inner peace through meditation
There's optimists and pessimists
I don't know which is worse
But the yogi mow mow, but the yogi mow mow
It's hopeless

The solution has been dissolved
The crisis has been resolved
There's no need to change your plans
It's a hopeless situation

For tomorrow is another day
And everything will be okay
And by the way, it's hopeless
(hopeless)

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
