Might As Well Be On Mars (Album Version)

might as well be on mars - alice cooper
the city streets are wet
with rain tonight
the taxi drivers swerve
from lane to lane
a lonely guitar man
playing down the hall
midnight blues comin
through the walls
i tried you to call
on the telephone
i left it off the hook
just to hear it ring
you told me you were
better off alone
i never knew
that tears could stain
i'm on the roof
and i'm staring at the stars
looking down at all the cars
i can see you
in the window of your
favorite corner bar
but to reach you
is just too far
and i might as well
be on mars
the city seems so old
and grey and beat
it closes in and makes
me wanna suffocate
and you just live
across the street
but that's a billion miles away
you've turned my world
into a dark and lonely place
like a planet lost in space
my light is fading
i'd cross the universe to
be right where you are
but i'm right in your backyard
and i as might well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
and you can't see me
i might as well be
the man on the moon
you can't hear me
oh, can you feel me so close
and yet so far
baby, i might as well be on mars
baby, i can't fly
if i could i'd come down to ya
maybe i should try
i'm on the roof
and i'm staring at the stars
lookin' down at all the cars
i can see you
in the window of your
favorite corner bar
but to reach is just too far
and i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
and you can't see me
i might as well be
the man on the moon
you can't hear me
oh, can you feel me so close
and yet so far
baby, i might as well be on mars
yeah, i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
i might as be well on mars
i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
i might as well be on mars
