Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Possession of a mind is a terrible thing
It's a transformation with an urge to kill
Not the body of a man from Earth
Not the face of the one you love, 'cause
[Verse 2]
Well, I turned into a martian
I can't even recall my name
Times I never hardly sleep at night
Well, I turned into a martian today
[Verse 3]
I walk down city streets on an unsuspecting human world
Inhuman in your midst
This world is mine to own, 'cause
[Verse 4]
Well, I turned into a martian
Well, I can't even recall my name
Times I never hardly sleep at night
Well, I turned into a martian today
[Verse 5]
Well, I turned into a martian
Well, I can't even recall my name
Times I never hardly sleep at night
I turned into a martian
I can't even recall my name
Oh, won't you tell me what the fuck is my name?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, martian
