It's the color of your heartbeat
 A rising summer sun
 The battle lost or won
 The flash to fashion
 And the pulse to passion
 
 We've got mars on the horizon
 Says the national midnight star
 
 What you believe is what you are
 A pair of dancing shoes
 The soviets are the blues
 
 And the mercury is rising
 Barometer starts to fall
 You know it gets to us all
 The pain that is learning
 And the rain that is burning
