lyrics

Mars Calling

You put an old cassette in my hand
The writing smudged and faded
Yellowed sellotape covering the holes
Put it on when I got home
Voices from an age ago
I guess that we were only ten years old

Going out on patrol
Hiding from the other boys
Recording every little think we'd find
And I don't recognise
My voice from all those years ago
I guess some things just slip your mind

This is Mars calling
Is that Mercury calling?
Was the hammer falling down upon
The springtime of our lives?
I'm still Mars calling
But the mercury's fallen
Permanently frozen voices in this big expanse of time

I did a hundred and eighty degree skid on my bike
Had a fight with Noggin
And told him that his Grifter, it was shite
And we bravely repelled an army of gonks or three
Saved the world from androids
And then went home for tea

And it's true that we did some crazy things
Falling out and falling in
And falling out again
And even though those times are at an end
I'm still Mars and I'm still glad
That you were my friend

This is Mars calling
Is that Mercury calling?
Was the hammer falling down upon
The springtime of our lives?
I'm still Mars calling
But the mercury's fallen
Permanently frozen voices in this big expanse of time
