Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly
And spring herself, when she woke at dawn
Would scarcely known that we were gone
I'm about to break
October 5th 2026
But that's us down there
Just you and me
They came out of the sky in their long silver craft
You see?
We're the Martians now.
Haven't you ever wondered?
Nuh uh
Well wouldn't it be fascinating if there were people there?
And they traveled to space in some sort of ship
Really Ela?
You know I hate this emotional waning
now let's get on with our work

I'm letting aliens visit
Emojis: the  new hieroglyphic
F*ck it I'm feeling terrific
Lost my mind help me go get it
Lost my mind help me go get it

Building a rocket ship
The Big Sound

The rocket lay on the launching field
Blowing up pink clouds of fire
Making summer with every breath of it's mighty exhausts
It seared the faces of the watching crowd
You see? We're the Martians now.
I've come from the third planet in a ship
That's ridiculous Eli
Everyone knows the third planet is incapable of supporting life

Help me get it now.
You know I hate this emotional waning
Now let's get on with our work
Fight Fight Fight

I'm letting aliens visit
Emojis: the  new hieroglyphic
F*ck it I'm feeling terrific
Lost my mind help me go get it
Lost my mind help me go get it

Building a rocketship
The Big Sound

I'm getting the hell out of here
I'm cutting my ties
I'm leaving the past behind
Change my name to Eli

The rocket vanished over the hill
The sky was empty again
Why are you so bad tempered?
It's only a dream.
Is it?
You can't keep secrets from me
The ship, It came from the sky again
And a tall man stepped out and talked with me
Telling me little jokes and laughing
He said I was beautiful
And then he kissed me
Well he told me he would take me away in his ship
Into the sky
Take me back to his planet with him
it's quite ridiculous really

Help me get it
Help me get it now

Not one would mind
Neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly
And spring herself
When she woke at dawn
Would scarcely known
That we were gone

Well the voice spoke again and again and again

Drink to me
Only Me
My malaise and I will pledge devine

You should have heard yourself
Fawning on him
Talking to him
Singing with him all night
But what about the rocket?
We're going to blow up our rocket and start all over
See if we can't build a better world up here
I hope you don't mind too much
But what about the Martians?
When do we get to see them?
There they are!

Drink to me only with thine eyes
And I will pledge with mine.
