Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Body breathing
Almost comatose

Wall to wall
People hypnotised
And they’re stepping lightly
And each night in rapture

Back to back
Sacraliliac
Spineless movement
And a wild attack

Face to face
Sightless solitude
And it’s finger popping
twenty-four hour shopping in rapture

Fab Five Freddy told me everybody fly
DJ spinning I said my my
Flash is fast
Flash is cool
Fran_ois ce pa Flashe no deau
And you don’t stop
Sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car
And you drive real far
And you drive all night
And you see a light
And it comes right down
And it lands on the ground
And out comes a man from mars
And you try to run
but he’s got a big gun
and he shoots you dead
and he eats your head

And then you’re in a man from mars
You go out all night eating cars
You eat cadillacs, lincolns too, mercuries and subarus
And you don’t stop
You keep on eating cars
And then when there’s no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars
Where the people meet
Face to face
Cheek to cheek
One to one
Man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don’t move too slow
‘Cos the man from mars is filled with cars
He’s eating bars
Yeah wall to wall
Door to door
Wall to wall he’s gonna eat them all
Rapture (Rapture)
Be pure
Take a tour
Through the sewer
Don’t strain your brain
Paint the train
You’ll be singing
In the rain
And you don’t stop
Do punk rock

Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Body breathing
Almost comatose

Wall to wall
People hypnotised
And they’re stepping lightly
And each night in rapture

And now you’ve seen what you want to be
Just have your party on TV
‘Cos the man from mars won’t eat up bars
Where the TV’s on
And now he’s gone back up to space
Where he won’t have the hassle with the human race
And you hip hop
Just blast off
Sure shot
‘Cos the man from mars has stopped eating cars and Eating bars
And now he only eats guitars
Get up
(Get up)

(Get up)
Rapture
(Human race human race human race human race)
