Take this road, go westward You and me Ground zero in the desert They've come to see something Never seen so many cameras, all in one place (As) I took the picture, she calls out Hey Uncle Sam Put a man on Mars Put a man on Mars Put a man on Mars Ooh, they put a man on Mars And everyone saw And everything changed And now everyone's saving To leave the world behind Flee the rising tide Be the man on Mars They're standing still in the city You left me for Playing that day on every screen Do you think of me? And now they're looking like the lucky ones And everyone knows And all those things in between us Are nothing now Addicted to running We’re all just tryna find something Lying in the gutter looking at the stars They put a man on Mars They put a man on Mars They put a man on Mars Ooh, they put a man on Mars And everyone saw And everything changed Now everyone's saving To leave the world behind Flee the rising tide Flee the fire and storm Leave it all behind (drowned in the city) They put a man on Mars (we’re left in the desert) They said they'd put you there too, some day One fine day
