Dressed up for a big date
Like Halloween Day, yea
But it was Fourth of July now
A car crash
With a suitcase and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And roller skates in bed
He rides the Greyhound
From his hometown
When he comes around
'Cause they don't let him drive now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
Crash is lookin' like a star
You and me, we're invincible
Together, we can be
Oh so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like Ziggy
But he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash
An' the beauty Queen
From Mars
Share a toothpick, tradin' lipstick
Watchin' traffic
For days at the diner
Holdin' hands, makin' big plans
Playin' Superman
He was wearin' eyeliner
Another local legend
And his longtime lucky charm
You and me, we're invincible
Together, we can be
Oh so tragical, whatever
All dressed up like Ziggy
(Ooo)
But he couldn't play guitar
(Ooo)
Captain Crash
An' the beauty Queen
From Mars
They're drunk on love
As you can get
Gettin' high on lust
(Yea)
And cigarettes
Livin' life
With no regrets
At least they're gonna try
To fly
You and me, we're invincible
Together, we can be
Oh so tragical, whatever
We're Sid and Nancy
Fred and Ginger
Clyde and Bonnie
Liz and Richard
Kurt and Courtney
(Ooo)
Bacall and Bogie
(Ooo)
Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe
(Ooo)
Here's Captain Crash
An' the beauty Queen
From Mars
(Ooo)
They're like you and me, yes
Captain Crash
An' the beauty Queen
From Mars
Tu du tu, tu du tu
Tu du tu, du
Tu du tu, tu du tu
Tu du tu, du
(They're like you and me)
Tu du tu, tu du tu
Tu du tu, du
