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.
