[Intro (Spoken)]
Don't you understand? I want to do something with my life! I want to be somebody!
[Verse 1]
Here I am
Same routine
Harry from work
Beautiful wife
I know they mean well
But sometimes I feel like I'm crushed
By this boring, repetitive life...
Every night, I go dreaming
And the skies are red!
I'm on another planet!
Then I wake up. I'm in bed...
But the brunette on the mountain
I can still see her face
It's as if she's a memory
That's been long since erased
[Chorus]
Yes, I'd leave them behind and aim for the farthest star
I'll find out who I am by climbing the mountains of Mars!
[Verse 2]
But instead, I watch the news
And it looks so exciting
The rebellion on Mars
All this shooting and fighting
I try to be a good sport
And I try to be patient
But that company Rekall
With their phony vacations...
[Chorus]
I'd fork over the fee and aim for the farthest star
I'll find out who I am when I'm climbing the mountains of Mars!
[Verse 3]
So a trip to the planet
Where Tibinium flows...
The mysterious woman
And the secret she knows...
[Pre-Chorus]
A family man, God! What a bore
But I'm hoping that something's in store
I have to find out what I'm for
'Cause I know that I'm meant to be more
Like a superman fighting a war
On Mars!
[Chorus]
Yes, I'd leave them behind and aim for the farthest star
I'll find out who I am by climbing the mountains of Mars...
