Redox Redux
Dweeb
I read this article and wrote this song.

Lyrics:
I feel like synthesizing
Another little copy of me
To lay right here beside me
On the beautiful martian sea
Iron redox reaction
A little invention of mine
Storing up that energy
To keep me from expiring
Three point five billion years from now
On the planet they call Earth
Everybody will dream about
The miracle of my birth
This ocean is so lovely
A wonderful place to be
I’m leaving clues behind me
For all the future to see
No longer can you doubt it
Everything left behind
Evidence resounding
Perseverance to find
Three point…
Redox redux, what did you feed us?
Sucking up the Martian light
Redox redux, where did you see us?
Laying right here in the rover’s sight
Your search is finally over
Now pack it all up and go
But let me keep the rover
I’ve come to love him so
Now you know you’re never alone
When your staying up late at night
The red star shining ever so fine
I’m putting up a pretty good fight
Three..
