Broke out of the cage today Most everybody is still locked away They think i'm crazy but i'm not crazy A couple of dishes short a buffet 'Cause i do things in an alternate way Voice my opinions and they think i'm spacey 'Cause i dance to the beat of a different drummer I sing to the tune of my own fly number Groove to the music in my head I go where they don't tread, therefor: I'm livin'life on mars My head is in the stars I get it all the time But i feel fine Im livin' life on mars My head is in the stars I hear it everywhere But i don't care My fathers' girlfriend threw some rocks My mothers' husband changed the locks They were a couple quarters short a dollar Everybody takes their shots 'Cause i think outside the box I'm sorry teacher find another scholar 'Cause i dance to the beat of a different drummer I sing to the tune of my own fly number Groove to the music in my head I go where they don't tread, therefor: I'm livin'life on mars My head is in the stars I get it all the time But i feel fine Im livin' life on mars My head is in the stars I hear it everywhere But i don't care
