Red Dust to Red Dust

Red Dust to Red Dust Music and Lyrics by Don Weismantel Vocals by Ryan Lucas Produced by Michiel Papenhove Cover Art by Kalipluche Is Planet Earth spinning out of control And if it is, how would we even know? When the faces that sell us the nightly news Are no longer telling us half the truth They say we need to find some other place In order to save the whole human race It's all the fault of the man-made machines The blue marble where we live is no longer green So we would be heroes And we would be stars If we were the first Man and woman on Mars Starting a new cosmic family The hope for all humanity I'll try not to be a Major Tom You'll be the very first Martian Mom Hand in hand We'll do all that we must Ashes to ashes Red dust to red dust From here up high Earth still looks quite the same It makes me wonder... was it only just a game? Or who or what if anything's to blame? Is it only someone's crusade for fortune and fame? We finally landed on Planet Four Took years and years and maybe more This one small step is a leap for mankind We must have been out of our mind So we could be heroes And we could be stars Cause we are the first Man and woman on Mars Starting a new cosmic family The hope for all humanity I'll try not to be a Major Tom You'll be the very first Martian Mom Hand in hand We'll do all that we must Ashes to ashes Red dust to red dust Ground control Do you read me loud and clear What do we do now Now that we are here Come in Ground control Is anyone still there? Is there anyone alive Who really cares? So we can be heroes And we can be stars Cause we are the first Man and woman on Mars We started a new cosmic family The hope for all humanity I tried not to be a Major Tom You are the very first Martian Mom Hand in hand We'll do all that we must Ashes to ashes Red dust to red dust
