Red Sky

Pere Ubu

In Texas there is a bayou 
Cross the bayou there is a highway 
Down the highway there is a town called Houston 
On Mars there is a red sky 
and beneath it there are no blue eyes 

Below me there is a table 
and the table looks like ice 
Thru the screen door there is a bug light 
On the wireless there is a ballgame 
while on Mars there are no women 
and as well there are no grey skies 
On Mars there are no women 
and as well there are no grey skies 

At NASA they build rockets 
and they need a place to go 
While I know that someone once lived here 
now I cannot recall 
who 

On Mars there is a red sky 
and beneath it there are no blue eyes 

In Texas there is a bayou 
Cross the bayou there is a highway 
Down the highway there is a town called Houston 
On Mars there are no women 
and as well there are no grey skies 
ever 

Mars has no women 
Mars has no women 
Mars has no women 
ever
