[Verse 1]
I had been asleep for days
In a metal tube between the trees
Dreamed I saw father's face
On each and all the leaves
I visited him in a nursing home
The same place I been born
Told him I would steal a car
[Chorus]
He told me there were no pyramids on Mars
[Verse 2]
Under a highway overpass
I fell down on the grass
I sniffed and smeared the carbon track
Chlorophyll and an oily mass
A fool came running through the rust
He told me why I'd always lost
I asked him how he got his scars
[Chorus]
He told me there were no pyramids on Mars
[Verse 3]
I woke up on an abandoned path
A lock of hair and a subway map
A payphone rang with a nervous laugh I answered it so fast
A familiar voice wouldn't give a name
Told me things would always be this way
Deaths the thing between the stars
And there are no pyramids on mars
[Chorus]
There were no pyramids on mars
No pyramids on Mars
No pyramids on Mars
No pyramids on Mars
No pyramids on Mars
No pyramids on Mars
No pyramids on Mars
