We have just discovered
An important note from space
The Martians plan to throw a dance
For all the human race

Papa, ooh, mir, mir, papa, ooh, mir, mir
Papa, ooh, mir, mir, papa, ooh, mir ,mir
Ee-ee-ee ee-ee

I got into my rocket ship to see the Martian Hop
I saw the planet shining red so there I made my stop
But as I opened up the door and climbed the ladder down
I saw the Martians on the floor a-dancin` to this sound

Ee-ee-ee ee-ee, the Martian Hop, ee-ee-ee ee-ee-ee-ee

It seamed I was the first one there and so I was surprised
To see the Martians twist and stomp before my very eyes
They did the locomotion and the hully-gully too
I couldn't name a single dance the Martians couldn't do

Ee-ee-ee ee-ee, the Martian Hop, ee-ee-ee ee-ee-ee-ee

Now right around the stroke of twelve the dance had just begun
The earth kids parked their spaceship down on Mars to have some fun
And so I left my friends, the Martians, stomping on the ground
And even though I'm back on earth I still can hear this sound

Ee-ee-ee ee-ee, the Martian Hop, ee-ee-ee ee-ee-ee-ee
