Red Planet Blues

Words and Music by D-Rok


I see horizons of magic fire
Rainbow red and growing higher
Can't you hear it, everything screaming at you (at you)
Hey can't you feel it, the whole planet singing the blues

Red planet blues

(Well) the air's all wrong, crying in pain
Slide down the throat like it got claws and a tail
This used to be a place you could lie in the sun
And breathe all day long

Can't you hear it, everything screaming at you
Hey can't you feel it, the whole planet singing the blues
Red planet blues (can't you feel it)

From the open plains to the mountain top
This fighting never seems to stop
Red planet blues

Hey stranger in a broken land
Spreading disease with an open hand
Gotta tell you if you do any more
You'll have nothing left worth fighting for

Can't you hear it, everything screaming at you
Hey can't you feel it, the whole planet singing the blues
Red planet blues (can't you feel it)

Don't you know that when you're through
You'll have broken this old planet's heart in two
Well how you gonna live if the planet's dead
There ain't no sleep if you burn your bed
