[Intro]
Red Mars for the rich
[Verse 1]
I'm just a poor boy
Living frugally
I see Mars on TV
I see people happy
I work fields with
Blistered fingers
I look starward
That world has no place for me
[Chorus]
Red Mars
The tsars
Live large
Red Mars for the rich, rich
[Verse 2]
Mars for the privileged
Earth for the poor
Mars terraforming slowly
Earth has been deformed
Just forget it, ya ain't coming here
The ticket's too dear
I stare sadly into my beer
That world has no place for me
[Chorus]
Red Mars
The tsars
Live large
Red Mars for the rich, rich, rich
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Red Mars
The tsars
Live large
Red Mars for the rich, rich, rich, rich
