I am the man from the planet Marzipan Good to see you My eyes are screwed up tight, unaccustomed to the light And all my arms and all my legs are much too long Much too long My head is in a state, unaccustomed to the weight I wear this mild expression, I'm an alien to aggression Music only does me in my skins so thin There's so much that I can't take in There's so much that I can't take in There's so much that I daren't take in Can you feel through my skin to me? Can you feel through my skin to me? Throw a tarpaulin over me I look like a rotary washing line I am the face of 2069 I have trouble with my breathing My net-curtain lungs And the thoughtlessness of other people's careless tongues The air's so thin Oh my skin The air's so thin Oh my skin I am the man from the planet Marzipan My eyes are screwed up tight, unaccustomed to the light I wear this mild expression, I'm an alien to aggression The air's so thin Oh my skin Oh my skin.. I'm so close.. I'm so close to a breakdown A constant crisis in the heart What the hell is going on here? Earth creatures. Amazing, beautiful and mad. Monkeys trying to be stars Monkeys carrying their Gods around Lies and murder in the name of heaven Seen it all before in the kindergartens of the Universe It would be quaint if it wasn't so damned scary I can't listen and I can't watch I can see inside the machine I can see the join! I can see the join. Can you feel through my skin to me? Can you see through my skin? It's all here in my skin, you see It's all here in my skin, Here in my skin! If you really look It's a nursery book.
