Pere Ubu
Red Sky
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
Through 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
