Lyrics

Toe to toe...dancing very close
Body breathing...almost comatose
Wall to wall...people hypnotized
And they're step-ping lightly
Hang each night in rapture

Back to back...sacroiliac
Spineless movement...and a wild attack
Face to face...sightless solitude
And it's fin-ger pop-ping
Twenty four hour shopping in rapture

Fab five freddy told me everybody's fly
D.j. spinning, I said, "my, my."
Flash is fast, flash is cool
François, c'est pas flashe non due
And you don't stop...sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and it lands on the ground
And out comes the man from mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from mars
You go out at night...eatin' cars
You eat cadillacs, lincolns too
Mercurys and subaru
And you don't stop
You keep on eatin' cars
Then when there's no more cars you go out at night
And eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face
Dance cheek to cheek
One to one
Man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move too slow
Cause the man from mars
Is through with cars
He's eating bars
Yeah, wall to wall
Door to door
Hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rap-ture
Be pure
Take a tour...through the sewer
Don't strain your brain
Paint a train
You'll be singing...in the rain
Said don't stop...do the punk rock. (break)

Man to man, body muscular
Seismic decibel, by the jugular
Wall to wall, tea time technology
And a digital ladder
No sign of bad luck in rap-ture

Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on t.v
Cause the man from mars won't eat up bars
Where the t.v's on
Now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
Say you hip hop
And you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
Cause the man from mars stopped eatin' cars
And eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars
Get up!
