Mars Beach Holiday

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Packed my bag with stardust souvenirs

Ticket in my pocket smells like space

Rocket humming soft beneath my ear

Counting down the hours to that place

Pre-Chorus

Salt air in the red horizon glow

Beach towels on the crater sands

I can almost hear the tide below

Waves that never quite touch land

Chorus

Take me to the Mars beach town

Where the ocean glows like wine

Warm red sunshine coming down

Every single grain divine

Take me to the Mars beach town

I swear we'll make it this time

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Red sand paradise

Oh-oh-oh

Verse 2

Hired a little rover shaped like a shell

Driver says the coast is just ahead

Palm trees made of minerals they shine so well

Lying on the dunes we float instead

Pre-Chorus

Tasted something purple from a tin

Felt the gravity get loose and light

Every colour humming from within

Everything is wrong but feels so right

Chorus

Take me to the Mars beach town

Where the ocean glows like wine

Warm red sunshine coming down

Every single grain divine

Take me to the Mars beach town

I swear we'll make it this time

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Red sand paradise

Oh-oh-oh

Bridge

Glitter in the window

Curtains turning green

Carpet feels like water

Or so it seems

Verse 3

Blink and the rover's just a plastic chair

The coastline's just a poster on the wall

No rocket humming anywhere

Just a ceiling fan and me, that's all

I bought a fake trip home from a man downtown

Never left the living room at all

Chorus

Take me to the Mars beach town

Where the ocean glows like wine

Warm red sunshine coming down

Every single grain divine

Take me to the Mars beach town

Maybe next time

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

Red sand paradise

Oh-oh-oh

Mm-hmm
