Dan Solo - Living on Mars

Looking at the night sky I can just about see home
But far away from you is the planet that now I roam
The ground is red here and there's not much here to be found
There's walls of copper dust and nothing much else around
I look to my past life and wonder if I'll ever return?
The spaceship I got here has got no fuel left to burn
I'm building the basics here just so I can barely survive
No choice but wait another day until some others arrive

Oh what it's like to be living on Mars
The desert is cold and I don't like travelling that far
Oh to be the first guy living on Mars
It's lonely out here and all you can see are stars

Another day comes and I'm still here waiting alone
Longing for the day that I can finally travel home
The locals are keeping their distance away from me
That alien who arrived here has really got nobody
Keeping my distance to show that I am no threat
Or doing something that I would probably later regret

Oh what it's like to be living on Mars
The desert is cold and I don't like travelling that far
Oh to be the first guy living on Mars
It's lonely out here and all you can see are stars

Finally, the radio on the ship sparks into life
They're questioning how the hell that I survived
Crew on my escape route tell me to get down the runway
And what in the hell is a Space Cowboy anyway?

Oh what it's like to be living on Mars
The desert is cold and I don't like travelling that far
Oh to be the first guy living on Mars
It's lonely out here and all you can see are stars
