[Intro]
[Verse]
Sunday morning with the New York Times
The sun is shining in my penthouse suite
My lady love laid down some lines
They reach from Culver Beach to Easy Street
[Verse]
Before the mirror you apply your cream
Cosmetic secrets of eternal youth
There s something the matter, it s just a bad dream
I know you d leave me if you knew the truth
[Chorus]
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
Only the stars mean anything to you
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
I m already that far away from you
[Bridge]
We lead such a sweet existence
But I m reaching out to you in vain
You re disappearing in the distance
Of this alien terrain
[Chorus]
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
Only the stars mean anything to you
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
I m already that far away from you
[Instrumental]
[Verse]
Monday night, another day goes by
Your voice keeps telling me that life is sweet
I watch your star flash into the sky
Crash down to earth again on Easy Street
[Chorus]
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
Only the stars mean anything to you
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
I m already that far away from you
[Chorus]
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
Only the stars mean anything to you
I might as well be on Mars
I might as well be on Mars
I m already that far away from you
